I guess I just need to vent for a second. I am so mentally and emotionally exhausted from my body being in early and false labor for 11 days. For example yesterday I woke up and lost my Mp... I had been losing pieces for about two weeks but he nasty part found its way out! Anyway that was around 7am... around 11am I started having contractions at work and around 1pm they were about 10 to 12 minutes apart they started getting more intense and an hour later were 8-9 minutes... I couldn't focus so I left work since I live 30 minutes away. Dh and I took a walk were they increased but they slowed down again and have just stayed at 10 minutes or longer. I am on little sleep and clearly STILL not in active labor. Now I know ill have to go back to work today and be miserable. No one can do anything... not even me. And ive been sitting here waiting for it to.stop or pick up and it just doesn't... idk what to do:( I wish I was like other women who woke up and were just in labor or their water broke. No... I have to do this for weeks!!! I am so frustrated. Don't know of there are other prodromal laborers out there but this is bullsh!t!


Re: so miserable :(
I'm sorry you're going through this! I had it for 2 weeks with DS. And then I had it all last week, even though I didn't want to go into labor because DD is breech.
Benadryl and a heating pad have really helped me rest at night. Good luck!
Thanks ladies. I'm just trying to make it through each day you know? But of course they are still going today... I know I won't stay pregnant forever. But I can't even think of it as a possiblity that I could be like this for another two weeks. I think okay get through TODAY.
So exhausted.
Hope this all happens for us soon and I can forget how horrible this part has been once I see her little face. But until then it is the longest part of being pregnant.
