Having real contractions!

FinallyMrsBMW · December 2008

Hooray! I hope I don't jinx myself by posting this but I have had contractions that I can actually keep track of since last night at 6pm. They started last night about 20 minutes apart and lasted throughout the night but were mild. This morning they got a little bit stronger and were about 10-15 minutes apart. Now they are up to 7-9 minutes apart and are getting quite strong. It seems like I should be going to the hospital pretty soon, right? My doctor wants me to wait until I'm 4-5 minutes apart...

Sounds like progress to me! I agree, though, doctors usually say 4-5 minutes apart is a good point to head into the hospital. Good luck!

Yep - wait til they're about five minutes apart. Everyone seems to say it's best to stay at home as long as you can b/c you're much more comfortable there. Good luck!
