Feeling Dumb

So last night into this morning I was feeling very crampy. Around 11:30am today I started having contractions, and they were pretty painful! I tried to ignore them but after about 2 hours they weren’t letting up and coming about every 2-3 minutes. I called my hubby and told him to come home from work, I think this may be it. Called my mom and told her I may need her pick up my daughter from daycare. This was all around 1:30. I called my midwives and they said come on in whenever I think I’m ready. Well, now it’s a little after 3 and things are fizzling out🙄 Every 2-3 minutes turned into sporadic contractions. I’m trying to stay active to encourage them, but I feel defeated like it’s not happening now. I’m so confused because they were getting really painful and even in between contractions I was so crampy! Now I feel just mildly crampy and hardly any contractions 😩 I few so dumb for calling everyone. With my first baby, my water broke so there was no question that I was in labor! I wish my water would break or I would have a bloody show or something if I really am in labor, which I 100% thought I was but apparently not. Ugh. I will be 38 weeks tomorrow so I know I have time still, but I don’t understand why my body would act like it’s in labor just to change it’s mind. So frustrating. End rant 🤦🏼‍♀️
