Having Labor issues need prayer badly.

[GodsGirl]

I just got home from the hospital, labor started again for me at 1:30am. However, even though I am thinned out even more, and more so after they had me walk for an hour after getting there at 2:30am (I wanted to make sure I was right.) I am still dialated at a 2,though getting closer to 3.

The baby has turned around and is facing the wrong way but they are sure that it will turn again once labor starts and continues to not stop. So, I have been having labor on and off since Friday.

It happens for me in waves, my contractions come on super strong and every 5 minutes for hours then , the contractions are still every 5 they just weaken.
Then they get super huge again. All the stopping and starting is preventing my body from normally dialating. Its not braxton hicks, its not false labor its the real thing. My body just keeps starting and stoping.

I am exhausted but I can't lay down. My options are to sit indian style on the floor, sit on a stool laying my shoulders and head on the bed, walking, squatting, sitting on a stool indian style or have sex WHILE I am having the huge contracting (oh that should be loads of fun...)


They are waiting for me to go into labor and stay by just not being able to take the pain anymore and be dialated, for my bloody show to finally start, or for my water to break.

Thank you for praying!! :hugs:

Aw, I'm sorry this is rough on you. Hopefully you will be able to get some rest before it kicks in for good! Prayers for you and your baby.

I'm sorry about this. I was in "early labor" from October 13th until the 21st....very annoying.

Your baby will come even if it doesn't seem like it.

I'm sorry to hear of your labor struggle and I'll be praying for you.

God Bless

Praying! ANd you can encourage your baby to rotate by being on hands and knees ...I did this with one of my kids- I scrubbed all the floors (I don't think I have done that since- I usually use a mop). Another means to encourage baby to turn is to do a deep lunge and sort of swivel your hips Elvis-style while you are contracting...or to put one foot up on a step or a step stool and do your hips while you are contracting.

I am sorry that you are unable to rest It is so overwhelming... give into your feelings- cry, be mad...but also keep remembering that your little one will be here so, so soon!!!!
