I feel like crap...

I want so badly for this to be it, but I don't like calling the doc and looking like a fool. I have 19 days left, but I was up all night with period like cramps, nausea, diarrhea and my back was killing me. I think I slept 2-3 hours total, so now I feel worse. I know y'all are going to say contractions are extremely painful and I'll know the difference, but I'm afraid I won't. With both of my labors I was able to walk, talk, joke, sleep, etc. through the contractions. Also since I'm a vba2c I'm worried I may wait too long because I don't want to be "that lady" who calls about every twinge... Someone tell me to stop being a pansy ass and get over it. I do realistically understand I'm likely not in labor, but the vba2c I think worries me the most...

    That's been me the last 3 nights. And I've had similar labor experiences To you in the past due to high pain tolerance being able to walk/talk/joke (though I had vaginal deliveries.)

    You have less time left than I do (36w1d) but I think I'd take into account how far you are from the hospital. If you live further away, you'd be more likely to miss window for vbac?

    I live 10 min away from hospital and am more of the "wait it out" camp because I know I can get there in time for epi and what have you. (Plus, I have a doc apt tomorrow.)

    Still uncomfortable though. I vaguely remember feeling like this for a few days before my older two were born.

    I had a vaginal delivery, and #2 flipped when I was dilated to 10. I can't wait until my water breaks because it will likely be too late. Both #1 and #2 I was dilated to 10 when it broke. #3 I was induced due to IUGR. I know the hospital is only like 7 minutes (plus time to park in the ramp and walk to admittance, so maybe 15 minutes) but I don't think the doc helped Thursday by telling me I needed to get in right away to be monitored since I'm vba2c. She probably made me more paranoid! Lol

    Oh man- in that case, maybe call their doc on call line? Or at very least get a doc apt first thing tomorrow morning.

    If doc did it to "scare you", and the result is that you call more often , I wouldn't feel as guilty about it.
