Thought I was in labor last night.

Scary!

So, last night was a pretty normal night. Put the kids in bed, watched some tv, and had some naughty time with the hubs. Then I went to bed. About four hours later, I woke up to my lower back hurting. At first, I thought that maybe I was just sleeping in a weird position, but the more I tried to get comfortable, the more I just could not.

After about thirty minutes, the pains were also in my belly. After about fifteen more minutes, it was clear they were contractions...and they were coming pretty fast and were moderately strong. So, I woke my husband and told him, and decided to try to drink some water and relax and see what happened. Finally after about two hours, and about two minutes before I was going to go to the hospital, they started to calm and I was able to go back to sleep. I'm feeling okay this morning.

I was scared though. I had some bleeding scares with my first two kids, but never anything like real contractions this early on. Needless to say, I am drinking lots of water today and taking it as easy as I can (with two toddlers to wrangle). Not a fun night...not at all.
