All Done.
Ok Baby, this is getting obnoxious.
Last night, ok, really this morning, from 3 am - almost 8 am, I had consistent and painful contractions again. There were several times that I thought hmmm, maybe we should go in to the hospital, but I did NOT want to get sent home again. So I waited. And waited. And tried to sleep through the pain, which I did for a little bit.
I got up twice and walked around, went to the bathroom, and had a drink of water, just to make sure the contractions were going to continue. Guess what--they did! So when Daddy's alarm went off at about 6:30 this morning, we got up, showered, ate breakfast, and called Nana.
She got there about 7:45, and we headed to the hospital!
I should have known right when we got there that this was just another false alarm. I was still having contractions, but they had already slowed.
Well guess what? They hooked me up to the monitors, and NO contractions. None. For almost 25 minutes. Then there was one. One. I was SO mad.
And even worse, after all that pain for so many hours, when the nurse checked me, I was still only dilated to a 2. How could that be?! After all that pain? And little sleep? And frustration?
I have to be honest, the whole time we were at the hospital I felt angry. Angry that I called Nana to come be with your brothers, angry that Daddy took work off, angry that we were at the hospital again. And embarrassed! I mean, it looked like I didn't know when to go into the hospital. Especially because this is twice in a week!
I don't know what is going on, but I told Daddy that we would not be going to the hospital again unless my water broke. And I mean that. I am so frustrated, kiddo! And I know it's not you, but it's really annoying.
So let's do better, ok? Let's just be normal!
Love you,
Mommy
