I haven't been on here lately because I 've been in and out of the hospital...I was getting this weird cramping after loosing mucus...And I got sent home (not dialted )then saturday night I could not sleep I was getting pain in my lower stomach every little while which started every hour then slowly through the night it becme closer together...I went to the hospital in the morning because the pains were 3-5 minutes apart and that's when I found out it was contractions...And I was dialated at 1cm ..I was then sent to walk around I came back a half an hour later and I was at 2cm...But they wouldn't send me home..I was to come back when contractions are more severe or my water breaks (i live 45 minutes away from hospital) I was sent to go somewhere to get my mind off the pain ahead of me so we went to my boyfriends grandma nearby...Still the pains were the same and I went back for another check up before heading all the way home...And nothing has changed...Now here I am getting longer more intense contractions...But they are far apart..So I have to wait till later to see what happens then I go for sure to the hospital tmw... Crying or Very sad I am very exhausted!!

Just relax and have fun! Labor takes a while. So relax, take a walk and enjoy labor, cause soon enough you can enjoy your newborn!
