contractions never showed up on the monitor!!!
Ok so here's the story. I went into labor with my son at 38.5 days. That morning I went to my dr for my weekly check, they said I was 2cm dilated no big deal. I go home and lay down, I normally get pretty crampy when they check me. Later that night they started to get more intense so I called the dr and they told me to go to L&D. We get there they hook me up to all the monitors and check me. I'm 4 cm now. They tell they are just going to monitor me but not admit me yet since my contractions aren't showing up on the monitor. (This was my first so they think it's nothing) about an hour later I know I'm in full blown labor. The pain was horrific and it was all in my lower back. Still no contractions on the monitor. As she's filling out my papers to discharge me my water broke. She checked me and I'm 10 cm ready to push😳. So for the next 45 minutes they had to admit me call my dr and tell me it's to late for an epidural. My son came in 2 hours and 46 minutes! Now I'm pregnant with number 2 and scared to death the same thing is going to happen. Has anyone else experienced anything like this?
