I was induced with the girls so I didn't go through the whole early labor, timing contractions thing. I posted Friday about the cramping and back pain I was having. Since yesterday, I've been having contractions pretty consistently about every 20-30 minutes and pain in the bottom of my belly when I stand up. I also have had a LOT of pressure "down there." So, what do you ladies think? Should I be on the lookout for my water breaking any time now, or do I still have days and days of this left? I got virtually no sleep last night and I took the day off work today to rest. But I can't sleep. I keep thinking about stuff I need to do. I need to switch the carseats around, fix the straps on the infant carseat, put batteries in the swing and bouncy seat, put together the bassinet, etc, etc, etc. But I'm too tired to do any of that! So I just lay here thinking about it. It's pretty sad that I'm looking forward to going into labor so I can go to the hospital and actually rest for a couple of days!
I don't have any experience as mine was all PTL with the twins. It sounds like early labor signs, but can't that stuff last awhile too...I don't know! Anyway,I was just thinking about you this morning thinking how close you are...it's so exciting!!!!!
I agree with pp, it's so hard to say how long it will last! I hope it is soon! Can't wait to hear your news! Good luck!
If I remember correctly, my mom never had her water break on it's own (twins plus two boy pregnancies). Good luck in getting everything done! We gotta switch the car seats around in the car sometime in the next few months!
