Like @courtney.welsh said. Take the time to shower and stuff just in case they do get worse. It's always nice to walk into the hospital feeling fresh because you'll feel pretty gross after but less gross than if you didn't shower lol

Make sure you stay hydrated. And eat now!!! They won’t really let you at the hospital. Until after you have the baby if you get the epidural. I would also take a shower now just in case. A bath can be risky you wouldn’t know if your water broke (only 7% chance of that happening but just in case)

@xo_ra lol thank you! Good luck on yours

@kylesmom16 yes, my belly is tightening... so far I don't have the contractions that close, but they are getting a little more painful everytime I get one. I'm also putting a timer just in case.

Lol, I really hope I tolerate the pain.

And thank you ❤

I’m only saying real because when I had my son I thought it was time for labor several times. Then once I was in labor I was like yah that wasn’t even close. Lol. I have a high pain tolerance to. Btw congrats on baby any day!

Real contractions are usually I want to kill the person next to you in pain feeling. Your belly will tighten then release. They said if that’s happening 3-5 min apart you go in. You are probably starting the process of baby coming. If cramping gets closer go in

@judyann_15, yes. I think ten minutes is too fat apart for them to take you. You should try a shower or a bath though.

@courtney.welsh well if it is, they are kind of painful. When they get worst I will call the clinic, for now I'll just rest.

Sounds like a real contraction to me!!
