I went to the hospital yesterday thinking I was having the baby, turns out I was experiencing Braxton Hicks every 5mins for 1 min on the hour. They sent me home because I was only 1cm dilated, currently im at 39 + 3days. Today however my contractions are definitely stronger than yesterday. From others experiences how long after you dilated did you have your baby, and as the days went did you feel contractions increasing in pain? I’m hoping not to have to go through these pains for s week, I’m so ready.
