on and off labor pains

its almost been a week of me haveing contractions ever 5 to 8 mins apart .. im getting exhausted and very impaitent ! they started thursday the 19th and then friday part of my (brown) mucus plug came out along with more later that day .. After that nothing has been goin on other than the contractions .. and  ive been haveing alot of whiteish dicharge here and there. But this morning i woke up in pain my whole stomach was hurting very bad it felt like i hade a stomach ach. i tried useing the restroom i hade a normal bowel movement but i didnt stop the pains .. the pains were pritty intense and it would hurt more when i would have a contraction and that went on and about a hour, but then my baby started moveing really wiered like back and forth and down reallly low with sharp pains down low like she was trying to break my water or something, then my stomach ach like pain went away after about a hour or two, but the lower movement pains kept going for a while after that, now  the baby hasnt been moveing that much since that all went on ... could it be a sign that im goin to have her tonight? will the pains come back ? my contractions are still there they dont hurt but they just are very uncomfterable and make my stomach really hard ..my due date is this sunday and im still only dialated to a two ... has anyone else hade this sort of problem? is it normal?

Blah I have been feeling the same way for almost a week, although mine have only gotten 10 minutes apart...I am only 37 weeks 3 days but I am so ready for this baby to be here...my doctor wasn't concerned at my appointment yesterday she just said labor could come at anytime and to call if the contractions  got to the point where I couldn't do anything during them

I've been doing the same thing. I got 5 tributeline shots to stop labor. At this point we are just letting nature take its course, I didn't feel comfortable using Procardia . It's a nightmare.... I know.
