really upset right now

Ok I go to doctors this morning thinking maybe I have an UTI because the symptoms was there. Well no UTI on their test going to send it off to lab to make sure. So doctor decides to check my cervix because my symptoms evidently can be sign of oncoming labor. Finally hit the 4cm mark but my doctor is out today and this doctor decided with the amount of mucus discharge I'm having and everything else that I may actually finally go into active labor on my own so told me to keep my appt for Wednesday and sent me home. It was really disgusting because when he finished checking my cervix, you could see huge glob of mucus on his glove. So now I'm supposed to be on lookout for any sign of labor. Well as I was leaving my husband sent a text saying he was going with his friend and that he was turning his phone off so I don't bother him. My other supposed support persons phone is off also. So now I'm sitting here all alone at home with nobody to call if I go into labor and most likely I probably won't see my husband again til late tonight or tomorrow morning because the fact he turned his phone off tells me he with another female. WTH why does everyone have to do this so close to my DD for? If I were to go into labor I'm stuck with nobody to drive me to hospital and even if I could find someone I can't go if there is nobody here to get my kids off bus and stay with them. Why didn't I ask my father to reschedule his appts. Now that he isn't here my husband is back to normal, my father kept him on good behavior. I feel so sad, pathetic, and alone right now.

I'm confused on the part about your husband being with another female? What's all that about? Do you believe he cheats?

I've been taking it easy and resting up like the doctor said for me to so I can save my energy for when it's time. A friend of mine ran into my husband and got him home even though I, only needed him to turn his phone on but at least I know where he is and don't have to worry about him drinking with his friends if I go into full labor. My 4 yr old came home from school and first thing she says is today is time for her baby brother to come out my belly. Aww she has been so ready to become a big sister and is getting tired of waiting. I told her not to worry definitely by the end of the week. I doubt today as long as it took me to get this far but definitely sometime this week. I'm just going to be prepared to go into full labor anytime like the doctor said to be and when I do, I do. This pressure is horrible though so hopefully it's very soon especially while my husband is cooperating.

Awwww momma im.so sorry that you are going thru all of this. Your husband is being really stubborn and has no reason to turn his phone off. He knows your situation and should have his phone on all the time. Just keep your head up high and be strong. Try not to stress to much because baby can feel everything. Im just sorry things are not working out for you.

I heard another woman come into L&D who was having her fifth. She had to taxi it. The story still touched my heart. I'm so sorry that your husband is so inconsiderate. If you can give birth alone today though, you can survive in your own too. God is making you stronger right now even if you don't feel like it at the moment. Kids might just have to go with you. It's not how you imagined things I am sure but they will see your strength in this too. I'll be praying for you.

Yea I'm trying to find someone to stay with my kids if I have to go to hospital because I've been having some contractions but I've been stuck in early labor so long I just been trying to ignore them but the doctor told me I'm now considered to be transitioning into active labor at 4cm but he doesn't want to say how long it should be or anything considering how long I've been stuck at early labor. Also, it's confusing because my contractions have stayed pretty much irregular but my cervix still dilated and he isn't sure if baby forced the dilation as low as he is. Especially considering the pain I felt Friday night and it felt like he moved a little lower and I was right about what I felt. As I dilated he pushed a little further down and he there nice and tight and that is why I'm feeling so much pressure on my bladder and having trouble peeing.
