NST Nurse and Doctor were wrong

=( Well...kinda.

My contractions are 3-5 minutes apart and I can feel them but they aren't unbearable...my back does really ache though...that is a constant pain though.

I am almost 3cm dilated, 80% effaced and -2 station...the doctor also said my bag of waters is very tense so to on the watch for leaking and that if it breaks, I will probably feel a huge gush.

They said I could stay and be re-checked in 2 hours or I could go home and labor...so we decided to go home....they said that they think I will have her very soon but who knows if that will be before Wednedsday at 7:45 (that is when I am scheduled to be induced).

So that's the update....I hope it kicks into active labor really, really, really soon!

You're so close!

That is great progress! At least now if you need to go in for the induction it has a higher chance of working since your body has been gearing up for labor on its own. I a so excited for you that it looks like you will be meeting Lily soon. Since the acupressure seems to be working are you going to try one more time?
