So if you've been following. Alittle over 2 weeks (32 weeks 5 days) ago I was sent in to labor and delivery due to contractions and spotting and found out I was 50% effaced and 3 cm dilated. I was given magnesium and fluids to stop contractions and sent home.

Last week I had check up with doctor and I progressed to 80% effaced but still 3 cm dilated so I was sent back to l&d and recieved steroid shots for babies lungs then sent home.

For last 18 hours I've been contracting at 8 minutes a part lasting at first 1 minute. Now they are longer at 1 minute and 20/30 seconds and closer to 5 minutes apart. I've havent been able to sleep and left message for obgyn at 3 am. I am currently 35 weeks 1 day. I've taken 2 warm baths to alleviate some of the pain but since I'm so sleep deprived and exhausted from contractions I'm not sure if I'm being paranoid over labor or if I really need to go back in. I really didn't want to go back to labor and delivery until it was go time. I was induced with my first so I'm not sure what to expect and its still early in my pregnancy 🥱 coming from one exhausted mama
