My day

Alanna
Today was just ugh. I wake up after intense pain in my back... My boyfriend drives me to the hospital, I'm put into labor observation. I'm 36 5 days along, not considered full term I guess. They strap me up to monitor babies heart beat movement etc. and my contractions. My nurse tries to tell me the pain I'm feeling isn't how I'm describing but I'm crying 😠 Then my midwife comes in and says she's going to check my cervix. (Never had that done but I was ready) I WAS NOT READY FOR THAT MUCH PAIN... Before she checked I had 5 BIG long contractions ☹️ She checked once I gave her the go, I tense up of course and she's just feeling around in there. She says you're about 2cm dilated. And I can feel babies head. I'm thinking wow I'm going to have this baby soon, the contractions aren't getting better just worse. That was around 8:30 AM then they keep monitoring me. I go and use the restroom, I'm spotting, I FLIP and scream for help. Then this nurse reassures me it's okay because she checked my cervix and popped some vessels. Okay so I went pee cleaned up, laid down and drank water. I guess when I drank water it spaced out my contractions but they still hurt like shit. I got checked again ( I was dreading it this time but I wasn't going to cry so I tensed up and tried to ask if she could still feel babies head) she said I'm roughly 3cm and then she checked my contractions, 6 minutes apart 😩 And she said " I'm sending you home, come back if they become 3-5 minutes apart" I cried because one I didn't wanna get up, I didn't wanna get dressed and lastly I didn't wanna go home to just come back. The pain continued as I tried to get my clothes on, the pain got so bad I had to throw up... I'm miserable. 😭 I just wanted to come home and rest. So I did, still having contractions. It's now 12:07 AM and I literally cannot sleep, still bleeding a little from my last cervix check. Contractions are still there but not as bad. Guess my son likes messing with his mom 😂 Just thought I'd let you know how my day was 🙂 How was everyone's else's?
