I am admitted to the hospital and I am dilating a 1cm every hour!!: ) my water still hasn't broke but I'm going to have a baby soon!: )

I had back labor. Mine was constant, but it felt like menstrual cramps. The pain in the front came and went. Two days prior I had the same thing, but the pain in front was constant. For this reason I didn't know I was in labor. Lol. I am FTM too and barely got to the hospital in time. I was dilated 6 cm by the time I got there. I think it was wasn't even an hour before I was fully dilated.

Try taking a hot bath. That completely made my back pain go away even when I was in labor and didn't know it. I started spotting and finally realized it was time.

But i wouuld expect labor within the next few days.

No if your water brakes then you have to go

[scarebear1030]

I thought if you lost your mucus plug you had to go to the ER ( don't freak, this is just a question)  and it sounded like you lost yours.. is the MP the same as your water breaking?

[babydue07182013]

Lucky! I have nothing. No cramps not anything. Hoping she comes soon for you!

[jLove1992]

Id say expect labor within the next few.days

[raven_0810]

Yeah she is stubborn but I think hopefully she will be soon because now the pain is coming and going and gets worse

[babydue07182013]

Aw your overdue now too? Our babies are stubborn!

[scarebear1030]

I'm first time too, sorry, I don't know what labor feels like LOL I'm nervous more now that I'm almost 26 weeks.

[raven_0810]

I called l&d they said back labor comes and goes since my pain is constant I should just drink a lot of water and take tynol and rest

Back labor is labor pains you feel in your back. Your baby might be facing the wrong way. Not breech, but facing away from your back instead of towards it. Call labor and delivery or just go in. You can also try sitting on an exercise ball or leaning over the back of a chair while someone presses on your lower back for pain relief.

[snrich7420]
