So, last night I freaked out really bad. I slowly started getting this tightening feeling in my pelvis, and it progressed to what felt like having contractions every three minutes within an hour. My boyfriend had been drinking so he couldn't drive me anywhere, and the hospital is an hour and a half away. It felt like my daughter was going to fall out of me, and I was terrified! So I get this hot flash all of a sudden and feel like I'm going to be sick, so I make my way to the bathroom... and it turns out I just needed to take a huge dump 🙄 I feel like such an idiot, but it really had me scared. Now I'm terrified of what real contractions will feel like, lol.
Well I hope I have your strength when the time comes, hahah. I usually handle pain well, but I guess we'll see.
Oh wow! It really all depends on your pain tolerance honestly! With me, not gonna lie it hurt like hell but it was nothing I couldn't bear through! And I'm a big baby when it comes to any pain haha! Of course the farther along dilated you are, the stronger they get as well. I wasn't doubled over in pain or anything, but whenever a contraction would come on I would have to stop whatever I was doing & just hold on to something to bear through it
Oh god, I'm so scared to feel actually contractions lol A friend of mine had her baby two weeks ago and said that she couldn't move when she went into labor, and her boyfriend and his dad had to carry her out of the house 😳
