*~* May 2013 - Spring Babies*~* 117 Jelly Babies - 22 Boy's & 19 Girl's - 5 Babies :D

I hope I'm so lucky cupcake. I've read this early labor can go on for days. I'm really worried ill be one of the ones that happens to.
 
Paracetamol (acetaminophen) is fine. Do you have a TENS machine?
 
Nope. I actually did a little research on them and fom the stuff I found, they only prescribe them in the US for back injuries.
So I just went pee and I'm wiping light pink and getting very small amounts of light pink fluid in my under pants. Would you think this is more show / plug related or waters breaking related?
I'm also starting to think my bh are turning to real contractions. I think I'm going to wake DH and make him start timing them.
 
Sass: Light pink fluid=waters breaking but usually there is a lot. This could be it for you! If you are worried about getting to the hospital around the marathon traffic, I would just call an ambulance and have them take you. They will know the route and your husband can follow them. My transition from BH to real contractions was obvious with DD. Went from just pressure/hard belly to squeeze my eyes shut and breathe through it contractions. Happened about an hour after my waters broke. I hope this is it for you!
 
Hope this is it for you sass wishing you a fast and smooth labour and delivery
 
Oh Sass that sounds very promising!! Really hope this is it! Oh and I'd say theres a definite difference between contractions and BH.

Happy due date miss mayhem! Still time for a may 4th baby for you!

Jtink - gorgeous baby! Did he end up being big? He doesn't look it!
 
Sass good luck honey! I had pink watery discharge for a couple of days with my first and apparently its your hind waters leaking- well it was in my case. My main waters went with a gush when my contractions had gotton strong and regular. Hope this is it for you and it is as quick and easy as it can be xxxxx
 
Awww jtink he's gorgeous!

Goodluck sass :D... Sounds like hind waters slowly leaking x
 
Ohhh more plug loss for me. Hopefully this is a good sign that bump will appear soon. My bump has also dropped and I'm unable up bend over now. Hubby came home to toys and stuff all over the floor. Tidied it up then hoovered whilst I was in the shower. I nearly cried he's very thoughtful and practical. He knew it was annoying me
 
Exciting missmayhem! I've not really had plug loss recently but have had a big increase in cm, my bump has dropped and getting lots of pressure in my pelvis and BH. I know this could go on for another 2 weeks so I'm not getting my hopes up but I think things are moving in the right direction!
 
This baby is going to be late just like hubby's family always are... Babies on my side are usually 3-2 weeks early
 
So i Spent 6 hours this morning in l&d. Contractions were horrendous! Arrived at a 2 and 5 mins apart. GOt to 2-3 mins apart and lasting three mins long, but my cervix never dialated past two, so they sent me home. The pain was horrible but they couldn't give me anything. I took two Tylenol PM's and a two hour nap. Now I'm awake, bleeding but not contracting anymore. So disappointed!
They said all the blood was my show. I thought it shoud have had mucous in it, but it just looked like period blood. Maybe because I already lost my plug earlier? They thought I might be ack tonight, but I'm not feeling a thing anymore. Just sent DH to the store for more pineapple and I'm going to go get on my ball.
 
Oh wow Sass that is sooo frustrating for you. My last baby was a pickle like this contracrions kept stopping but when they finally properly got going labour was very fast so I hope it is for you too. Is the blood fresh bright red stuff??? If is pretty please go back to l&d and get checked im sure plug loss blood is more old rusty red but im not sure. And yeah get bouncing and walking and make sure you keep your food and fluids up if you can. Good luck so hoping I hear you have a baby in the next 24 hrs! X
 
Sounds like things are progressing for you but that blood would concern me too I was induced with my first so i have no idea how that's all suppose to go down they broke my water for me and i dilated like 5 maybe but went to c section when Carter went into distress. Went into my pre admission this morning to the outpatient lab where the lady who called me told me to go this weekend. I get there and tell the guy exactly what she told me tell them your having a c section and they will know what to do . apparently in rare occasions your blood type can change so they check that and your blood pressure etc. well the guy was like we have no requisition forms for you to know what to do like you would get when you went anywhere. guess the lady never sent them in and that place is closed on weekends so that was a big waste of time. Gonna call monday and find out who dropped the ball there but I certainly wont have time to go before weds. My dr said its kind of pointless since you get all of this done during your pregnancy so its not really necessary so that puts me at ease.
 
Thanks Kezz! It was bright red this morning and I think it's the main reason my doc told me to go in right away. I had bright red while I was there, but it looks like older look now that I'm home. And they told me to expect lots of blood as I had 3 cervical checks today and they were pretty painful.
Nice thing is my doctor gave me her home cell number and told me to all her for anything. DH and I were pretty surprised.
I really hope you're right and baby comes soon. Today was so discouraging and I'm Elroy's my cervix doesn't work. :(
 
It was a complete waste of time and 7 bucks in parking for 10 mins lol
