Could I Actually Be In Labor This Time...? Posted: 09-23-05 07:25am
I'm afraid to get my hopes up because i've
been having false labor contractions on
and off for about 2 weeks already. Last
night my husband took me to dinner, and
sitting in the booth I started to get the
usual backpain then abdomen pain
contraction and thought, "eh when I stand
up it'll go away like all of them do." but
they didn't disappear or even fade when I
stood up, and when I rode in the car home.
So then i'm thinking it's still a trick,
so I purposely try to lull them away, I
took a hot shower and had a mug of hot
tea, contractions through it all. Went
to sleep the whole night and woke up early
this morning, and still contractions, but
they have only gotten a little bit
stronger and it's been about 8 hours now.
I'm pretty sure this is the real deal but
I don't want to get my hopes up. What do
you guys think? Later on in the day today
I will post again to let you know if my
contractions are still around.

It sure sounds like you could be in the
early stages of labour. Look out for
some other signs, like 'a show' or your
waters breaking. Call the hospital when
you either cant stand the pain anymore
& they are regular or when your waters
break.
