Well I'm at work timing contractions. Seeing if I need to leave early and go get checked out. I'm treating a yeast infection right now, and I have had a lot of pressure down there today and now some tightening contractions. Not painful, just uncomfortable But I had about 5 last hour, now I'm sitting here seeing if they are consistent or not. I really hope its not preterm labor. Maybe just uterine irritability. I've dealt with preterm labor before so I know I don't need to jump up right now...but I may be making a trip to the doctor if it doesn't subside. Ugh. I hate this. I feel I'm always crying wolf but its so hard to tell when its the real thing or just tons of BH because I have an irritable uterus.

Take care of yourself and I sure hope its nothing to worry about. I've been having a lot of BH lately, and I actually have been using this: Contraction Master: Your FREE, online contraction timing assistant!

It helps me to see if they are reg or not, and so far they havent been.

that is nerve wracking. I hope they subside. Could you call your doc office to get advice as to when you should act? Or having been there before you kinda know what's up. Hope it turns out to be nothing. Take care and do what you need to do.

My doctor, due to my past, ALWAYS says "Go right up to the ER".

But the contractions spaced out over the past hour...so I think things are OK, and harmless.

See since 2pm:

2:02
2:04
2:15
2:20
2:27
2:47

And I haven't had one since then. So, yeah, they are all over the place.

[Nwheeler]

[GinaOfAllTrades]

Well my boss was a butthead and made me work until 7:30 last night WITH contractions. They went away when I finally got home at 8:30 and was able to lay down. My doc said if they come back today I need to get checked just to make sure they aren't doing anything.

The more you talk about your boss, the more I HATE them! I really hope that you are taking notes of your boss's ridiculous behavior... you know, you might end up getting rich if you have the baby in the office because your boss didn't see the need to let you go home and rest.

How are you feeling today? Hopefully you can take some time to relax and rest.
