Went into the labor and delivery tonight around 11pm (it’s now 3 am). Around 10:20 I went to pee after dinner and had light but very red bleeding and contractions immediately following. So they told me to come in. Got my cervix checked and was told I was a “loose 1”, so they had me walk for 2 hours and that really started up my contractions. They went from every 10 minutes to every 2-5 minutes, and I’m pretty positive I’m having all back labor. Got checked after my 2 hours of walking and was still a 1 but thinned out more. Nurse told me I am in early labor, considering how close my contractions are coming but suggested I go home to get through early labor and onto active labor. I was given a pill to help me relax enough to sleep and we’ll see what happens when I wake up. Contractions are still beating my butt. 😩 let’s hope I don’t have babygirl in bed or otw back to the hospital. Oh and I’m 38+5, due August 25th. ♥️

Update: I had such a rough night. The pill only made me high and slow (noticed when going to the restroom) but the intense contractions were still noticeable. So I’ve been up on and off coaching myself through them. Now I’m officially up for the day and they’re still coming every 2-5 minutes, but lasting much longer. I haven’t been using a timer so I’m just going based off what I feel. Now it’s really full blown back labor, I’m just waiting until I feel like I’m losing my mind to go in. I will update again if things suddenly change. Thank you girls for the good luck wishes ♥️♥️
