F*ck you, uterus.

Mamasaurus

After punking me for a couple of weeks and making me think I was going to go into labor a few times with regular contractions that would suddenly stop, my uterus decided to have no contractions for a while. Apparently it was just waiting for me to complain about not having any to make me very, very sorry for saying anything. Ever since I came home from my MW visit, I will get one horribly painful contraction every couple of hours. Nothing timeable, nothing regular. Just out of the blue, WHAM! A contraction that lasts a little over 3 minutes and hurts all the way around, through my abdomen and into my back and butt. Even my thighs hurt a little from them, or at least that area where the thighs meet the body.

I know I should just be happy that I am 90% effaced and more dilated than I was for my last check, and that my baby did great on the NST. This is really getting annoying, though. I want to go into labor! And if I can't right now, then my uterus should let me get some sh*t done or let me rest or whatever, instead of acting like a crackhead.

Fingers crossed that your uterus kicks the habit and stops hoarding your baby.

Oh, and here's an overload of labor dust.

I'm sending a big ole' eff you to mine too... it's done this before.  WTF is the issue now?

I'll join you in that.  With DS, I knew when I was in labor.  This time, my body keeps messing with me.  Regular mild contractions, then nothing, than horrible back contractions, then nothing.  I'm going crazy.

Thanks! I didn't know I was supposed to be spanking fairies to get this going. Why wasn't that on the list my MW gave me?!?
