Just got home from the hospital. 2 cm dilated contractions are 5/10 min apart and told me to go home because im 37 weeks and 4 days. I need to wait for my water to break or my body to go in to active labor which can happen in 24 hours 🤦🏻♀️just great😔im in so much pain . Same thing happened on my daughter walked around two days with contractions and gave birth at 38 weeks guess i will have to do it again 😔
@jleona, I hope so I really want to meet him already. Did u pick a name yet?
@salogogo awww hang in there😞😞 hopefully he'll make his debut once your husband comes home 🤞
@jleona, i had contractions till 6 am barely slept my daughter was up at 7 am so i was beat . But no more contractions today just my ribs hurt feels like he is sitting on them or something. Im not really ready for him to arrive too because my husband is out of state be back end of the week but i kinda got excited to see him and be able to be me again around my daughter
@salogogo I'm feeling okay today, not many contractions or anything. I'm kinda disappointed but I'm not 100% ready for her yet lol. Hby? Did they check your cervix yesterday? They said mine is still pretty thick but it's beginning to thin out.
@mamacheybb, no im not dehydrated i drink lot of water i live on water this is how it went on my daughter as well
@salogogo they seemed really intense on the way to the hospital. Once I got there they slowed down a lot and by the time I left they were like 7-8 minutes apart and not too intense. Of course now I'm back home and it feels very uncomfortable all over again 😭 but my cervix is still pretty thick so I probably have awhile left.
Are you dehydrated at all by any chance I can get bh contractions that are pretty intense and as close as 5 mins apart that far along . Maybe you could try to hydrate and see if it helps at all . Hoping you can make it a little further !!!
@singingmommy123, yeah especially when hubby is in different state at the moment and i have toddler to look after as well
@singingmommy123, thank hun I really hope it wont take as long as last time it was 2 and half days of contractions so painful
Same for me. I was 37 weeks and 2 days, 3 cms dilated. Was having mild contractions for two days and my mucus plug came out but was still sent home. My water ended up breaking so just relax, try and I know it’s pain but TRY to sleep. That’s how mine broke, I was sleeping and was trying to get up to pee and it just broke. Good luck!
@jleona, no our families dont name juniors
