Struggling

Danielle

I am being kept in L&D overnight for monitoring. I was in last night having regular contractions at 38 weeks but not making enough progress to keep me so I was sent home. Well called the nurses line today to just let them know I was having some spotting and still having contractions.

The doctor wanted me to go in again. I have dilated a small amount since yesterday but no real progress. Baby is moving so much the monitors can’t really see any contractions or get a good read of baby’s heart rate cause he is flipping all over.

I’m just annoyed and now embarrassed. I didn’t ask to stay overnight. I’m not faking contractions. But I am sitting here with nurses wondering what’s going on

Small update last few contractions I have felt nurse was able to see on the monitor so that’s a plus
