Early Labor - How Long Did Yours Last?

Question

HELP! FTM here in the stages of early labor going on 3+ days now. Had my bloody show 2 days ago and have been having contractions that are now excruciating, but still not regular enough to be admitted to L&D. I am not scheduled to be induced till Monday. How long did this stage of labor last for you before contractions became 3 - 5 minutes apart consistently, and your cervix began dilating??

Answer

Just FYI, my contractions never got closer than 7-9 minutes apart, just a lot stronger. I eventually went in because I couldn't take the pain, was 6 cm dilated and had my baby 2 hours later

Answer

I'm pregnant with baby#4 40w tomorrow. I've been having contractions 2-3 min apart for several days now. lost my mucus plug this am. I'm 3cm. It's been rough. But there's a light at the end of the tunnel!! Promise!!

Answer

I'm in the same boat! This is day two for me. Doctor told me to come in if my water breaks, or fetal movement slows down.

Answer

Also in the same boat. Mine just started today. I can't imagine 3+ days of this. I'm so sorry yours is lasting so long.

Do you find there's anything at all to make them hurt less ? I find myself doubled over in pain and I just freeze idk what to do :(
