Nope, false alarm. moderate to severe contractions all last night but no progress. I'm just so tired from what I consider all the gratuitous pain. I'd be fine with the pain if I knew it was doing anything... but pain just for the sake of it? I'm so pissed. Was monitored for almost 4 hours last night, then sent home again and told to drink lots of water and take tylenol pm. Woke up without the contractions, but I feel like I've just had surgery... my bump is swollen and hard and sore, like it's been beaten up from the inside... no contractions, just pain. Apparently I'm pants at determining what's true or false labor- I think I'm going to just wait until my water breaks... who cares if my mother's water didn't break till she was 8 cm... better to have go to the hospital when it's too late for medication than having to lie on my back in the hospital, getting painful cervical checks for nothing, and only able to drink water. If you can't tell ladies, I'm just so fed up. I'm just sitting here bawling my eyes out as I type... I'M JUST SO DONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
