I've had 3 rounds of false labor, only one that had me thinking it was the real thing. Tonight, I've had contractions 3-6 minutes apart for over 3 hours..pretty intense ones too- more than before. We got the house ready, called my SIL (who is tired herself) and had her come over, and now they're like 8-10 minutes apart.
I am fine waiting- but not like this. i have work, I have two other kids, my SIL is really our only babysitter and she has work too. These false alarms can't keep happening. I just want to cry.
Re: This can't be happening again. :(
I've had 2 rounds of false labor with painful contractions 3min apart lasting for quite a few hours. And, eventually they just magically stop. It's pissing me off. Not only b/c I am just ready for this guy to come out, but I am beyond stressed about who is going to watch DD through all of this since we have no family around.
I completely get where you are coming from!
