In Labor and Delivery
Started having contractions last night around ten, but they were faint. I got sick and threw up around eleven. I started counting the contractions around 1130 and after a hour noticed they were three minutes apart. Drove in the storm at 130 with my man and my six year old son. It's 6am and I'm still having contractions 3 minutes apart, but as of 2am i wasn't dilated. Now I'm waiting for the doctor to come check me when she does her rounds. Yum ice chips. They tell me to rest but how can i when I'm contacting every three minutes and am anxious to know if I'll see my little girl soon or not. Any ideas? Advice?
O I hope u have ur baby dear. Ur right there. Keep us posted! Wish you well!
Thank you :-)
I know it's hard but try to relax in between contractions so your body can move forward. With my first I was in so much pain that I was really tense and wouldn't get passed a 4 until I got some meds and was able to relax. Good luck!!
