I know Ive been posting a lot lately sorry. But im being kept awake by what feels like what I would imagine is contractions from the way Ive heard them described. Im in so much pain! And its definately radiating from my back. The problem is they arent consistent and dont last long. I posted earlier that i would see blood when i wiped but that went away. Now Im just frustrated because all I want to do is get some rest and I cant afford to go in for false labor because im 45 minutes away from hospital What does all of this sound like, should I just stick it out for now?
Here are some things you can do to either get them to stop, relax you, or progress further: Walk, sit on a birthing ball, take a shower, take a bath, drink lots of water.
If these do not stop your contractions, but make them worse. Then go to the hospital. Better safe then sorry. GL!
Stick it out, time them and then make the decision. Eat a little something (an apple or a PB&J) and drinking ice water and lying on your side. I know you must be tired, but try and stay awake for a few hours (no more than 3, if you have to work in the AM) to time them.
Im having the same problem. Been up since 3am with intermittent contractions but very sporadic in timing, Ugh. Mega painful though, just like my brutal menstrual cramps. Im going to wait it out and see.
