Well last night I had the horrible lower
back pain and lower belly pain with some
pressure.. I told shawns mom about it and
she said it sounds like the night before
she went into labour so she figured I was
going into labour.. And shawns step dad
is taking his level 3 first aid and was
reading his book and it said those were
the first symptoms of labor.. I even had
a shower and the pains didnt really go
away.. Well shawns whole family was
saying I was going to go into labor.. I
didnt think so... I just couldnt see it
happening... And well... I was right...
It didnt happen... And now im
depressed... Im still here by myself
waiting for my lil man to get here.... Oh
well.. Theres nothing I can do... And as
im talking abot this my back is getting
really sore again so im gonna relax on the
couch

Poor girl 
it sounds like your body is gearing up for
it, though! I know how painful it is (oh
god, do I know) but at least you know that
your baby's lacing up his birthing
shoes!
It's insane. These last days are so so so
long, and then once you have your baby,
time shoots by like crazy!

I'm right there with you! Last night I
woke up because I was having the worst
back pain and it was coming and going in
waves. I was convinced I was having back
labor but just as I was getting ready to
go out to the living room and see what
happened with a little walking, it just
went away. I told my doctor about it
today and she said maybe i'm not drinking
enough. Are you getting enough fluids? I
feel like if I drank anymore i'd float
away...
It'll be soon! Hang in there!

Ew fruity smarties? Sound gross. They
didn't have chocolate inside did they?
I've never been a big chocolate fan
(unless it's really dark and bitter) and
i've never liked skittles.
I hope your man gets here soon, I want to
see pictures!
Does everyone have back labour?

Real contractions start in the front or
the back and come all the way around to
either your front or back.
I had contractions that made their way
around my lower body.
Contractions were intense as I was leaving
for the hospital(at 5cm.)
i was gonna be *plssed* if they turned me
around and sent me home!!!

last night I wanted to cry because I was
trying to sleep and I kept waking up
feeling "weird", I had a pain that started
on one side of my back and came around to
the side of my front... Does that sound
like a real contraction? It kind of felt
like a really really bad gas pain, it
lasted a minute or two and then went away
and would come back again later. Last
night was horrible.

i hope so! You don't know how terrible I
felt yesterday when the doctor said "it's
not going to be anytime soon". I almost
cried in the office.
I just didn't know if that was a real
contraction because it was only on one
side of my body, even though it was front
and back and I don't usually get gas pains
in my back. And I might be imagining this
since it was happening around 4am but I
think I was having the pains on both
sides, just never at the same time.
At this point i'm getting ready to reach
up there and yank him out myself.

If your doctor said it would be a while,
then they were more than likely braxton
hicks. You need to drink more water.
Water, water, water. All day long. Every
day.
I walked into the hospital with a gallon
of water. They told me to stop drinking
and I didn't. I *knew* that I need to
stay hydrated and I wasn't gonna let them
tell me what not to drink.
You could aso get *horrible* leg cramps if
you're not hydrated properly. It's a
serious thing that many women don't pay
attention to.
I hope your lil man comes soon, bookoo
ladies are due and day now!! I can't
waiiiittt!!!

These weren't braxton hicks. I've been
getting those for a couple months now and
I get them pretty much every night after
dinner for hours. And even though my
doctor said it wouldn't be anytime soon
i'm not really listening to that. They
don't really know, it's just like some
women walk around dilated 2cm for 4 weeks
before anything happens, others go from
nothing to delivering in a matter of 12
hours. I'm trying to think positively
that it really could be any day,
especially since i'm in a massive amount
of pain and i'm pretty miserable.
Isn't it crazy, there are like 6 or 7 of
us due in the next 2 weeks or so! Bring
on the babies!
Edit to add: I can't possibly drink any
more water than I already do. I'm
floating away here! I drink at least 100
oz of water a day if not more.

do you think you could get at a good angle
to do that? 
i really think you'll go on your own
though, and probably sooner than your
doctor thinks.

Those last days are *miserable*! I know
how annoying it is when people tell you to
"relax while you can!" because, it's
impossible to relax when you're so
uncomfortable! incredibly' impossible!
At least it'll be over in a few days
