how long...

Were your ladies in early labor? I have been in early labor since last night and my contractions hurt badly already and a 4 mins apart but I'm only dilated a 2 and they wanted me a 3 to keep me.

3 weeks I believe lol

Started on a Sunday night and didn't have her until Tuesday morning. I got sent home twice.  

a warm shower really helped as did bouncing on an exercise ball. And breath! those lame breathing exercises actually helped with my pain.

good luck and congrats!

here they say once they are 5 monutes apart to go to L&D. i was in labor with my daughter from midnight until 3 am when i went in an i was 4cm an had her at 12:47

I have had early labor on and off for 2 Weeks and since Saturday the started to become stronger and closer together and now they hurt so bad. I was sent home saturday night and last night. Now that they have gotten bad I pinched some nerves in my back and neck again causing my migraines aso off to the chiropractor i will go at 10.

Started early labor signs at 8 pm one night (contractions 3-5 mins apart, but not painful or productive enough) and didn't hit active labor until noon the next day...so, 16 hours. Once I was in active labor, though, I had him less than 6 hours later.
