they started spreading out some again   I feel so nauseous & like I'm going to have upset stomach again. DH isn't sure its time since they aren't consistently like 5 min apart, they were 3-5. Still waiting it out i guess & seeing if i can make it to doctor appointment at 10 (3 hours) & if so, what she thinks about me heading in already depending on if these contractions have made me dilate more or not.

Mine were never consistently apart. Varied between 3-5 minutes. I hope you've made some progress.

I'm going to bounce on ball a bit & see if that helps them become more consistent. Either way, I think I'm skipping doctor appointment & heading to L&D here in a bit just to be safe since doctor office is an hour from hospital & it might take awhile waiting, etc. I'm taking a gamble that I've progressed enough since I keep getting bloody show. If I'm progressing enough & in labor then I'm going to see if there is anything they can give me for nausea, I'd rather deal with the contractions than the damn nausea any day!

mine would be 4-5 minutes apart, and then i'd have 3 smaller ones in like, a 2 minute span.

when i got to the hospital they said the monitor was reading every 2 min, but i didn't feel every one of them. and then they spread out eventually so that's when they broke my water. and then i had him 25 minutes later.

I'm going to time a few more & see how they are. Then if they're between 3-5 I'll wake up DH & DD, get DD where she needs to be & head in; worst they can do is send me home. I'm pretty sure this is going to go down like last time as far as them hooking me up to pitocin   oh well, it's really looking like my body needs it, damn hormone issues!

As far as the last 4 I've had go, they're approximately 4 min apart & lasting roughly a min. Going to call friend & let her know it seems like its time & we need to drop DD off.

Just dropped off DD, headed in. If it weren't for timing the contractions I wouldn't be going to L&D because they are NOTHING compared to back labor last time...not yet anyways lol

Good luck! Mine never got that bad. I could talk through them.

Me too, lol! Got checked, at 4 cm & they're calling doctor to see if she wants me to get a room already or walk for an hour or so & see if I progress more first.

I'd walk around and see if you progress anymore. You dont wanna end up stuck there and not progressing

  I agree! Hope it all goes well.

Pretty regular contractions again, about every 5 minutes I'd say. More intense than before, but I'm mostly feeling the pain in my back. A nurse in l&d said real contractions would be felt mostly in front, so I'm not getting too excited.

Trust your instincts though. Some Moms do have just back labor. Rare but it happens.

All you ladies are making me nervous with your labor symptoms haha.
