Maybe TMI. But isn't everything on the board at this point?!
So I woke up at 1:30 with a good deal of liquid on my undies. I thought, probably just discharge, even though it was watery...I've had this watery stuff before that I thought was amniotic fluid and when my midwife looked at it under the microscope determined it wasn't. Then, I woke at 3 with a real sensation of wetness, and my underwear was soaked (that's never happened before), so I had to change them. I put a pad on because I could feel stuff coming out still. Baby moved around, so maybe sealed it up? Not a ton of liquid after that for awhile. I started cramping, then started having really intense contractions. They were a minute long, but sporadic....one at 3 minutes, one at 8 minutes, one at 5 minutes, one at 12 minutes. I had 8 over the course of an hour, and was just about to call my midwife, but I was soooo tired and was really trying to just ignore them and go to sleep. I fell asleep and woke several times with cramps or contractions, and was sweating up a storm, but nothing that kept me from going back to sleep, so it can't be too bad, right? Since I woke this morning, lots of liquid, lots of cramping, and occasional contractions...I'm also having a lot of pressure and just feeling crappy in general. I just have this feeling that this baby is coming soon.
And I could be totally wrong and end up the last person here.
But any way, I just feel weird...
I'm calling my midwife as soon as she gets into the birth center this morning, but meanwhile thought I'd speculate on here....
