I've been having contractions since last night, from about midnight they were averaging about 8 minutes apart, but honestly they haven't been terrible. I for some reason only have back labor, and while these contractions are not fun, they don't feel like the back ripping pain I had with my daughter. In fact I felt a little something in the front, which has been a pleasant surprise. But besides that, after 11 they slowed down to coming every 20 minutes or so. I've already made plans to drop my daughter off, the doctor recommended I go in because I live an hour away from the hospital, and my husband is hoping for a baby today, but I don't want to waste everyone's time. I'm 39+3, but I just don't know. I can go to the hospital, and be turned away, or cancel everything and mope around all night, and neither option sounds fun 😩
