Every time I pee and wipe there's mucousy stuff, some was tinged pink and I've been crampy all day. I think labor will be sometime in the next few days...I hope!!!

So excited - this is the first time I've lost the plug on my own!

Haha, me too!!! When I told my aunts at my Godson's bday party today they were all, "WHAT!?! Shouldn't you call your midwife and go home!?!". I had to explain to them that it could be a very long time still! (Well, not very long...but they were thinking hours until baby, lol).

My doula is on her way here...I feel like I can't do this anymore. I don't want to be in this pain....I want to go to the hosp, get an epidural, sleep, and push when they freaking tell me to.
I want to not worry about this anymore...I don't want to do this...

Another night of intense but only slightly regular contractions (still having them at 7:01am, starting at around 10:30pm). Feeling very discouraged.
This happened with my 2nd dd exactly two years ago, June '07. Contractions started on a Sunday evening, continued all Sunday night, stopped Monday morning, started again Mon night, stopped Tues morning, started again Tues night, stopped Wed. morning...went to hospital, had mw break my water and FINALLY stayed in labor.

I don't want to go through this again another night. I'm at the point where I want to be in the hospital just to get some sleep. Any encouragement of how to get through this?

I don't know anything about dealing with labor (I was induced with ds, and given an epi very early because he was distressed), but what you're dealing with sounds really really rough. I hope you get some advice and ideas.
Even more than that, I hope that you are in real labor VERY VERY soon, and it goes really well
