really?!

So last night I had contractions for 12 hours, they were painful and about 5-6 minutes apart. They would ease up about every hour and I'd know not to go to the hospital just yet. Today I've had zero contractions. I'm just ready for her to be here, I'm tired of waiting and not knowing.

Seems like I'm getting them every night now, they are super painful and take my breath away and come about every 5 minutes but after a few hours they ease up. I'm just so ready

I know how you feel. I had contractions 2-3 min apart 3 cm dilated, 70% effaced went to the hospital couldn't dialate anymore and they sent me home. Nothing since except on and off but they stop. So frustrating.

I've been exactly the same on and off for almost 3 weeks :( it's so frustrating and I'm exhausted all the time from it keeping me awake so much. Hopefully we'll both be going in soon!
