Been in labor for 4 days now, it's been long and hard. 3 days with no pain relief bc that was my original birth plan. The birth centre was very nice but this morning I was fed up with it. Got checked and it turns out my contractions came and lingered for 3-4 minutes which explains all the pain. They were strong enough to have baby BUT were not consistent. Baby was happy and dropping but not dialating as I needed to. They are trying to regulate contractions to then push vaginally but we shall see what happens in a few. Exhausted but excited I'll see my boy soon.
