When I went to L&D the nurses were kind of rude saying I should have called my doctor before coming in and I'm only suppose to come in when contractions are 3-5 minutes apart.  As soon as they hook me up to the monitor the pain started to ease. They said that I am only 1cm dilated so they have to discharge me. As they discharge me the pain comes on again. The nurse said it was just signs of early labor.. but that's it. Now I'm home and I feel some discomfort here and there but nothing as bad as this morning. I know some woman can stay 1cm dilated for weeks. I wanted to know how can I speed up dilation bc I am just completely uncomfortable. I also feel dumb for waking everybody up this morning thinking I was in labor and I wasn't. I also work at the hospital where I'm going to deliver at so it was even more embarrassing bc everyone thought I was going to have the baby and they discharged me  🤦🏾‍♀️
