so few hours ago my lower stomach started to hurt like really bad cramps at 1:30.... to the point of tears....really
painful and back pressure came on too... so called DH to come home and
i got rushed to the LD by 2:30... it was a full on contractions... 4 to 7mins
apart when we got to the hospital...
they had to give me Turbulen or something like that to stop the contractions but
after 15mins it came back so they gave me another shot.... which by the
was burns and hurts like hell!!!!
really!!! it feels like someone putting a hot knife to your arm and
digging in.... so after the second shot my contractions finally went
away and some cervix lab test came back negative so now I am back at home now...
my mom went through this w me... i guess it's a payback time...not fun
all those natural mom's out there pprops to you!!! i don't know how you guys did it
Oh wow, scary!!! Glad you and your cervix are doing ok. Baby Morla, please stay there for at least 5 more weeks!
Yup, contractions are killer. I had them every 5 minutes for 30 hours before the hospital took pity on me and finally admitted me. The moment I got my epidural was magic, just magic....
So glad they got them stopped.
Mine were tolerable for the first 20 hours or so, then I crawled into a warm bath for a couple of hours, struggled through my OB appointment, ended up on pitocin, and dealt with those for multiple hours. Of my 50 hour labor, I had the epi for only the last 10 hours... and it wore off 3 times (completely wore off once b/c I couldn't get the anesthesiologist in b/c he was busy and once to prep for my c/s). They absolutely suck. I imagine it's even worse when you know you shouldn't be having them.
