Ugh, I was woken up at 2:20 this morning with contractions again. I had about 12 in the first hour and about 10 in the second hour. I paged the midwife on call and she told me to try taking a bath, but that didn't really help. However, eventually they started to subside and I was able to briefly fall asleep around 7:00, only to be woken up by another one at 7:30! Why do they insist on coming in the middle of the night?!?! They are strong enough and often enough that I can't sleep through them, yet I know they are not labor.
I have decided not to go into the hospital or to see a midwife since they are subsiding and the only thing they can really do is check my cervix to see if I have dilated more. But even if I have dilated more, it doesn't mean I'm in labor, so it really doesn't provide any benefit and I really don't feel like going in. So I'll just chill and hope that they go away completely like they did last time. I'm sure they will.
I really wish this was an indicator that I will go into labor before my due date, but unfortunately it isn't. I can have all kinds of false labor and still go into labor late! It's so frustrating. Oh well, at least she hasn't come too early yet. The wait continues...
