Anyone else up?

runrinserepeat · February 2012

I started having contractions last night, and a few hours ago they got to the point where I couldn't sleep through them anymore. I'm trying to get by for about two more hours before i wake up dh, but they're getting more intense. Anyone up? I could use a distraction.

I'm up! Ive slept about 2 hours total. Baby girl is apparently excited my milk is coming in and nursing hourly. I hope you keep progressing along, good luck!

Up for 5am feeding...wish I could say the same for little man! He keeps falling asleep in his food!

Aw, I figured with all the new babies there would be someone up.

Starting to think I won't make it to 7. I stopped timing them about an hour ago, but they were coming every 3-5 minutes and lasting 45-55 seconds. They've gotten much more painful now, though. Thinking I might crawl back into bed and make DH rub my back at least...

Hard to believe that this might be it. I'm going to feel so silly if I make him take me in and it's not time yet...

That's how I felt...and I was holding my baby about 2.5 hours after getting to the hospital (c/s)!! Good luck!

me! i started having contractions a few hours ago and can't sleep. i'm trying to talk my body out of it though because of course we got 5 new inches of snow over night.

Im up this same thing is happening to me i think. Ive been up for over an hour now and have had 1 every about 15 minutes that lasts 45 seconds. I think. Part of me is worried that they might just be cramps but they hurt really really badly.

Where in your stomach are yours? mine are really low and contractions ive had before today have been really high which is why these are confusing me now!

I'm up too.... my little girl won't sleep. She's playing in the living room right now content as can be. Unfortunately for mommy that means very little sleep. Oh well.

I hope this is it for you! How exciting! Also keeping my fingers crossed for a quick and healthy delivery. I'll be keeping my eyes on the board today waiting for updates. Good luck!

Up for a while now and just feeling blah. Had contractions yesterday but they fizzled

I know every pregnancy is different but I hope this is it for you bc it gives me hope that my time will come soon since we have the same due date lol. Good luck and keep us posted!

For me, this is like menstrual cramps on crack. They're low and they reach around to my back.

I was able to get a little rest with DH, and the contractions are coming every 5minutes or so lasting about 40seconds, so they slowed down a bit. Hoping they pickup again now that we're up and about.
