Hey mamas! So Ive been having contractions for weeks now literally but they’ve never been consistent (longer than 1 hour) and at my doctors appointment on Tuesday I was 1cm and 50% effaced. Then I lost my plug on Friday and Saturday night after laying down I noticed I was having contractions again... I woke up with contractions much stronger but ruled them out as just needing to use the bathroom TMI I went poo 3 times!!! But they didn’t stop. I went back to sleep again and just woke up and tried to use the bathroom again but nothing came out. I started timing the contractions and I had like 20 in an hour one minute long every 3 minutes. These aren’t like the other ones I felt before but I’m not screaming in pain or anything JUST REALLY UNCOMFORTABLE. My water didn’t break no bloody show, but I want to know I’d it worth the L&D; trip or should I just ride it out 🤔 I want to get an epidural so I know I can’t wait tooooo long... I’m so confused ugh
