40 weeks and 1 day pregnant

Mayra

this is my first baby and I want baby to come now.. apparently I’ve been having Braxton hicks contractions when i went to L&D because I’m only 2 cm dilated and only 50% effaced & -4 station… like what no my contractions were about a min or min n half and about 4 to 5 min apart.. it gets discouraging when they diminish your pain… I believe Ive been in early labor for a few days because when I was hook on the monitor I didn’t even feel some of the contractions.. I’m happy that yesterday I had a bit of a break… now contractions are back and I want to meet my lil man… can anyone let me know if this is normal or at least progress? I just hate how nurses do that..
