Yesterday DH and I went furniture shopping, and on the way home I started getting alot of lower back cramps. Throughout the day, they progressively got worse, by about 6:00 last night they were about 5 minutes apart, and were getting uncomfortable. I took a bath to see if they would quit, like they usually do, but they got closer together. I was really starting to get excited! I tried going to sleep, but couldn't sleep through the contractions. So I got up and started cleaning/picking things up, and they suddenly got to be 3-4 minutes apart, and I was doing different positions to get through them. I called my mom to come over about 11:30, and we got to the hospital around 1:00 AM. After hooking me up and checking me, I was only 2 cent. dilated, I was expecting much more than that. But, after 2.5 hours of walking, using the birthing ball, etc. they really started to space out.
: They were still intense, but just not close enough together, so yes, they sent me home.
We got home about 4:00 AM, and I fell asleep, and since then they are maybe 20 minutes apart.: I am soooooo ticked! I *knew* this was it, as my BH are more felt in the front, and these were all back labor, which is what I get. I can't belive they petered off like that. So, here I thought by now I would be holding my little bundle, but am still pregnant. Ugh. And I feel embarrassed too, because I've been through this before, it's not my first time!!

I tell you I feel like the Mervyn's lady.. "Open, Open Open!" Has been my mantra lately
! And I really need to wait until at least the 6th I would prefer the afternoon of the 7th~ My kids have 1st Communion on Sunday am & I want to be there
After service anything goes
How frustrating, mama!! Don't be embarrassed, it sounds like it would have fooled anyone.
