I've been walking the mall for hours today. I was having contractions every 3 minutes, lasting anywhere between 50 sec-1min20sec. I had these very timable contractions for over 2 hours. I walked last night for 1 1/2 hours and they were 4 minutes apart. They settled down over night and have picked up again today. I called the OB and I get you should go home and see what happens. I drank a ton of water and they have slowed down a little. Makes me crabby. Yesterday, I was 3 cm and 60% effaced. Come on, I just want my water to break.So much for the 5/1/1 rule they talked about in childbirth class. I'm so crabby....
