This is a total rant, bear with me 😩

I’m 38 weeks and have been dilated to 4cm since 36 weeks. I am 75% effaced, station 0 as of last Monday, and the Dr said my bag was bulging. I’ve been having irregular, but real painful contractions for two days.

So, for the last 7-10 days I’ve been so sick and just thinking it’s a cold and I’ll get over it, I never went to the dr. Last night I woke up completely unable to breathe and considered going to the er, but I have asthma and fortunately have a nebulizer and medication at home. My husband told me “you have to go to the dr today, I’m insisting.” So I go on in to the dr, and they say oh this isn’t a cold. I have a severe sinus infection and bronchitis. YAY. Now I’m starting antibiotics and hoping I’ll be able to breathe again by tomorrow, but I know that the medicine will take at least a few days to really see a difference.

ALSO, we’re supposed to get a foot of snow this weekend 😕 so I’m sitting here, dilated with a bulging bag and irregular but painful contractions, unable to breathe and coughing like crazy, and waiting for a foot of snow to hit. I feel like OF COURSE I’m going to go into labor this weekend, because why wouldn’t I?!?

Anywho. Thanks for listening, and I’m sorry for complaining!
