So frustrated I want to cry...

So all day yesterday I was having some pretty intense contractions. By about 10ish I think they were getting to be stop me in my tracks painful. By midnight they were 4.5 minutes apart. I called the MW around 2 and she said it sounded like I was ready to go to the hospital. Called mom to come sit with the kids and off we went. I got there around 3. They wheeled me right up to an LDR room without even stopping at triage. The midwife came in and checked me. I was still only 1cm and 50% effaced. That's right. After a week of only getting a couple hours of sleep each night for the last week due to contractions and having painful contractions that were even into my back yesterday I still have made absolutely no progress. Obviously they sent me home. I broke down in tears at the hospital. I'm just so frustrated with my body right now. Every time I think about it I want to cry again.

I'm so sorry!  Labor will happen - your body is on it's own clock.  Maybe have some ice cream, it always makes me feel better.  Or spicy food to induce labor?

Aw, I'm so sorry. That has to be so hard. I hope that things get going so that your LO can make her appearance soon!

I've been getting frustrated too. Yesterday I was having regular, painful contractions then they just stopped. I haven't made any trips to L&D since my doctor told me to follow the 5-1-1 rule, but I have an appointment Monday, and I am hoping to schedule an induction for middle of next week. It has been one false alarm after another for the past 2 weeks. Sending labor and progress dust your way, and (((HUGS))) since I can understand the frustration.

I'm so sorry your labor is so frustrating.  I hope Charlie picks up the momentum any minute now.  Hang in there!

Thank you ladies! Sorry I was being such a whiny baby earlier. I was tired and frustrated and just needed to get it out. I feel much better now after squeezing in a nap. I know that I need to just relax and let Charlie do her thing. She'll be here when she's ready and I need to just be patient. As much as it feels like I will be, I can't possibly stay pregnant forever. Thank you for your support as always!
