Contractions last night, ended up at L&D a little after midnight with contractions every 5 mins. Only dilated 1/2 cm and no rupture of membranes. Sent home at 2:30 and saw doc for regular appt at 10:45. I'm now dilated to 2 and still having contractions as well as awful back pain (I think I might be in for back labor). Doc said I should go into full active labor within 24-48 hours. Hoping sooner rather than later. Please send me thoughts &prayers for a speedy arrival!

Update: So my contractions have stopped :-( I haven't had one in over 12 hours. I know baby will come when he or she is ready but this is really driving me crazy. I am going to do as much activity as my sore back and pelvis will allow me today to push this LO along.

    Bummer, I'm sorry. It's like the two week wait on the other end! LOL!

    My contractions--when I'm paying attention to them--are driving me nuts mentally, but are not painful. How is your back labor treating you? I'm hoping that if your contractions stopped, you're--hopefully--at least more comfortable!

  • Nope still having awful back pain. That's been going in for weeks though so I'm kinda resigned to the fact that it's not gonna stop till after LO's arrival.
