  • Yep, I had them when I was in labor!! Sounds like your time is right around the corner momma! :D \:D/
  • @LilSugarsMomma its confusing me bc i thought they said it would wrap around from my back but it feels like horrible cramps...and earlier this morning i had alot of snotty stuff each time i wiped sorry tmi...but just twice and no blood
  • I had extremely bad back labor lol oh you'll KNOW when your in labor :)
  • No TMI at all, that would be your mucus plug. I bet you have this baby by Friday! Yay!

  • @LilSugarsMomma even if theres no blood?
  • @KendylsMommy im afraid they will just send me home
  • @mollysmama I wouldn't go it, but if your water breaks or the pain is unbearable, get your booty to a hospital ASAP!
  • @mollysmama Yes, even if there's no blood. With my daughter, I lost bits and pieces of non-bloody plug for weeks, and didn't lose the bloody show until after my water.broke and I was in labor.
  • @LilSugarsMomma im hoping when its time my water does break so ill know to go lol
  • @LilSugarsMomma ok everyone kept telling me there had to be blood
  • Lol, trust me, you'll know. If your water doesn't break, your pain will start getting to the point to where you can't talk or hold a conversation without stopping to grimmace or breathe. But the cramping is generally a good indicator of labor. At least it was successful for me anyways, and I've had 3 pregnancies! Hehe
  • @LilSugarsMomma i was induced with my first and so i never really experienced reallabor but its to the point where they kind of take my breath away
  • Sounds like labor. I had those type of cramps up until they broke myy water. I went in the first time at 2cm. Got sent home just to go back a few hours later and I was at a 6. Then it was all a blur up until my son was born. My labor went super fast I didn't have time for epi.
  • @mollysmama If the cramping is coming in waves, time it. It very well could be labor even if you only feel it in your lower abdomen.

    I've been thinking about this a lot too as I was induced with my first.

    When is your DD? Mine is Jan 13th.
  • @misskristin mine is jan 10th im going to start timing them since they arent going away
  • @mollysmama Good luck hun!!! :) Please keep us posted if you have time! I promise to check back often...it's only 715 here!
  • @misskristin i will! I hope its time andnot just a false alarm
  • Yep the only thing I had was some pain medication. That just made me feel loopy. I would go! the most they r going to do is send u home. Better to be safe than sorry. I arrived at the hospital around 1130 got moniterd for little bit. went to l&d room. Took 20 min and three nurse to find a vein. The doctor broke my water. Then the pain came on full force. Then I had the feeling I had to shit. Before I knew it I was screaming for epi. the nurse told me I didn't have time. That they would have to call in the antistigolgist<--(misspelled). So about 5 mins later I told them I had to push. My sister and hubby said no. Finally the nurse walked in I said I had to push she checked me baby was coming. I pushed for 30min and he was out. The pushing equaled relief lol. After labor hurts more in my opinon.
  • @stephforver89 the hospital i go to i hate. They are always rude and treat you like they dont care or you are stupid
  • That sucks. Is there another hospital u can go to? The nurses that did my iv were rude they kept whispering behind my back esp when I about fainted. The one nurse said to the other I think she is hemoraging. I told them no my body is in shock from just giving birth naturally. To go get me a pepsi and to let me lay down for a little bit longer before I had to change rooms. The day shift nurses were nice and the one night shift nurse I had was really nice she wanted to have convo everytime she came in.
  • @stephforever89 no its the only one close where there is a nicu and that my dr delivers at ...i hate it
  • I wish u the best of luck :) @mollysmama
  • Thats how my labor started but it was a whole week until they got consistent enough.
  • @istephforever89 thanks....they have kindda died down now :( . I was rewlly hoping he was deciding to come out!
  • @mollysmama How are you feeling today?
  • @misskristin still really bad cramps and some weird pains. I kept waking up all night. Im waiting to see if they get to the point where i cant stand it.
