Contractions!!

I have been having contractions every ~7ish minutes for the last hour and a half! Yikes! This means that my little lady might be on her way into the world. They came on suddenly and after 3 painful ones in a row, DH and I decided we better start timing them.  They've been consistently at least one minute long and anywhere from 4-10 minutes apart since we started. Looks like all of DH's pestering about contractions may have paid off. ;) Here's to hoping they continue!

    Lots of labor dust to you! This sounds promising!

    Good Luck!

    Everyone's different but what I noticed when I went into labor was I had a radiating pain that went from my lower back around to my abdomen with every contraction.  We headed off to L&D when they were consistently 5 minutes (on the dot) and they were so painful I couldn't talk through them.  My poor husband was running around throwing stuff in a bag and asking me questions on where items were and all I could do was bite his head off and tell him to "shut the eff up!" and "lets go!!!!....hurry!!!!!!"  I later apologized....
