Irregular contractions

Georgina

I'm in the early stages of labour & my contractions just won't get regular 😩

They started at 9:45pm last night, its now 5:40pm. I've had no sleep because they are too painful, I get so close to being able to go to hospital then they go back to being really sporadic again.

I'm moving loads too to try & get them going properly

In the same boat I’m sorry. Due date in 9 days and for the past 3 days I have had irregular contractions. Just keep moving and try to get as much rest when posdible

Update:I got admitted to the hospital because my contractions were showing up ridiculously strong for how far dilated I was, guessing it was all that raspberry leaf tea 😂I had some morphine to finally let my body rest & woke up to my waters breaking 🙌

Rest when you can let your body do its thing and be kind too it. I had this too, I recommend don’t push it because birth is a Marathon not a short race.

Are you in a lot of pain? Like cant walk or breathe through them? I'd go in anyways if it's unbearable because I've heard some womens contractions never regulate and just stay that way. I would more just listen to your body just in case or at least go to your OB to see if your dilating

Also 40+4 and had contractions for about 4 hours last night every 5-10 minutes and they started increasing in intensity and then they just stopped. Had sporadic ones today, but nothing regular. I’ve come to the conclusion that this baby is never coming out 😫
