Update about primrose oil

So I started primrose oil, inserting vaginally per my doctor, Sunday night was my 4th treatment and I woke up at 2:02am cause I had to pee. When I was walking to the bathroom, my water broke, first time in 4 kids that this happened. So now I am at home, timing my contractions, waiting for them to get close enough to go into the hospital, looks like I will be having my son today! My original due date was October 25th. The primrose was told to me by my doctor cause I was still thick on Thursday for my check up, I am 38 weeks and have been having braxtons since 32 weeks solid.

Thank you! I am just trying to remain calm, never had my water break before, I was induced with my other 3 kids so that was a little crazy. Ended up having to tale a shower, cause when I stood up I had more fluid gush out, lol so just sitting at home relaxing till I get close enough to go in and have my second little boy, 4th baby! Have to admit I am scared to have an infant again, my other kids are 16, 11, and 9, so there is a bit of gap there lol

I already called my doctor and everything, I am only 5 mins from the hospital. The contractions finally started about 20 mins after my water broke and are about 10 mins apart still, so with it being this early and still far apart, I like to spend most of my time at home, I usually go in about 3-5 mins apart. I have other kids at home too, so holding out long enough to get someone here to get them off to school so me and hubby can be at the hospital together would be ideal, although life doesn't always work out that way, lol

If your water broke you should go now. You don't want to wait to long. Good luck
