I'm labouring at home for as long as I can. I've been in labour all day, it didn't really get exciting until about 5pm when the contractions got moderately painful. Waters are in tact, but I'm a FTM and not sure when to go to the hospital. My contractions are 4-5 mins apart and I have to breath through them, some make me sweat. I really don't want to go there and get sent home or get told I'm only 3cm but I'm afraid if I wait too long I'll be one of those people who have the baby in the car LOL! Any insight? Do I stick to the 5-1-1 rule? They are only about 45 seconds each. Been like this for a little over an hour now.
