Hoping tonight's the night!

All I can hear in my head is Luther Vandross' "let's make tonight the night!" Long story short, I was closed on Monday and today I'm 3 cent. dilated and 80% effaced. I know that means it could be a while, but it also is the light at the end of the tunnel. I've been cramping/contracting on and off. At one point it was 6 minutes from start to start, then it stopped! So I'm assuming it was BH. Then in the 3 hours I was waiting at the dr's office. Yes 3. Long story. I had more and more contractions and they were about a 5.5 to 6 on the pain meter. Delightful thing, the doctor kinda didn't care. She was like, it's your body so when you feel it's too much and you want to go in to the hospital just call us and them and go in. Um, OK. So, right now I'm home, starving-can't eat since I've been nauseous and puking most of the day- and crazy out of mind wondering if this is it, or just a false alarm. I'm waiting on DH to come home so we can comb the place together making sure all is in order, then recheck the hospital bag, while I time my contax and see where to go from there. Maybe we'll take a long walk.

    That makes two of us! I was 4 cm when I went in this morning for my 37 week. Seriously had no clue. I was supposed to go out of town this weekend for a job fair! Now I've been cramping and contracting all day, but nothing more than 7-10min apart. Hope you can get some food in your system and some rest. And I seriously hope this is it for both of us!

    I've been timing my contractions. They're about 5 minutes apart. I'm going to finish timing them till 9 and then call the dr and see what they say. This is all too confusing for me. I'm not sure why. And GL. I can understand how frustrating it is to be in your position.
