Help me out, please

Have been having real contractions, not BHs, since about two thirty today. they come every forty minutes. A few have been 30 mins apart but bleh.

L&D wont accept me til my water breaks or they go 5-7mins apart. My butt hurts and my head hurts and I'm afraid this is going to be a hugely long labor.

I dont have any oils, RLT, a penis to have sex with, or a horse. I do, however, have capabilities for solosexytime (although im totally not in the mood haha) and nipple stimulation, legs that allow walks, and a bathtub.

help?

Maybe try walking around your house for awhile? I've heard of ladies taking baths, but I'd be afraid to do that alone I case something happens and I slip or something, but I'm overly paranoid. Lol.

The other problem with taking a bath now is that you might not realize if your water breaks while in the tub!

I wish I could be of some help, but I don't know anything about this stuff...though my mother swears walking around on hard concrete floor all evening is what got her labour started with me.

Good luck!

solosexytime will be of no use as its meant to be hormones in the sperm that can stat labor, sorry im in the same boat though as im gay and wont be able to use sex to start labor

walking will be your best bet and squats my MW has told me to do lots of squats holding onto the back of a chair she said to do them in early labor to speed things up as it pushes baby further onto your cervix and helps with dilation

good luck keep us posted hope all goes well x

Stairs! Walk as much as you can, and do as many stairs as you can.

I tried pressure points. There are some that are supposed to help, but I don't know if it was a coincidence that I had baby the day I tried them.
