contractions

Avatar f tn I know it's hard but try to relax in between contractions so your body can move forward. With my first I was in so much pain that I was really tense and wouldn't get passed a 4 until I got some meds and was able to relax. Good luck!!

Avatar f tn This is my first baby I am only a few weeks but ive been in the delivery room with my a few friends and it just depends on the person really I have one froendbwho pushed my over an hour and another it was 15 mins
Avatar f tn But keep in mind the epidural will not 100% black out the pain during delivery it's only is used for to ease the pain but with my contractions it did help numb it alot but like i said i am feel alot more pressure which is a little uncomfortable and doctors and nurses say it only gets worst

Avatar f tn Around 6pm, the pain got worse so we decided to come in. The contractions were constantly coming and lasting for a little over a minute. I was hooked up to the machine so the can monitor us and the contractions were 5 mins apart and strong. The doctor came in to check me and I was 100% effaced and 7cm dilated so they admitted me. The pain was unbeatable so I requested an epidural. I feel so much better and sm not feeling the contractions now. Sorry it is long.
Avatar f tn When it actually came to push how long did you ladies push for? Was it some of a relief compared to the contractions and pain while waiting? I'm due in a few weeks and getting pretty nervous about the pain.
Avatar f tn Guess what ladies?! I'm in labor and delivery. Thursday I was 6cm dialated and today I am 7cm dialated so far. Ugh, I want to go natural but am afraid of the pain. Still debating whether I should get the epi. Hopefully I have this baby before noon.
Avatar f tn I was 17 and only in labor for 6 hours and pushed for 30 minutes. The epidural gave me the shakes really bad too but i dilated so quickly that it didnt have time to wear off before i had to start trying to push. I never really prepared myself, but once i was in the hospital i guess in a way i was just ready! But Dont worry, whatever happenes you'll do GREAT!!
Avatar f tn I had my son at 3:41am this morning. He weighed 8lbs 13oz. I was a little overdue so I went to the hospital to be induced. I arrived at 730 a and they broke my water at 1030am. About 2hrs after I started getting menstrual feeling cramps and then contractions quickly followed. They contractions definitely hurt but we're barable. With the pitocin I was having contractions every 2 minutes. I asked for the epidural because I knew I would not be getting in right away.
Avatar f tn Do they feel like bad period cramps in the beginning? Ive neen timing them n its every 5 min. Im scheduled to b induced at 5pm. Should I go in now?
11736276 tn?1420734053 m starting to think a lot more women are having babies without regular contractions I jus had my babygirl Saturday morning and I went in to labor and delivery with irregular contractions almost gt sent home only I refused since I was 5cm dialated..
Avatar f tn Currently at labor and delivery and having strong contractions and 1cm dilated. Was given a shot to stop contractions. Does This show usually help. How long does it take to dialate? That is the only way they will keep me.
Avatar n tn So big news, yesterday I arrived in Labor and Delivery. Getting medication to help me dialate faster and to start my contractions. Hopefully by tonight or tomorrow the baby should here. Super anxious and happy!
Avatar f tn Woke up this morning with contractions. They were about 4-5 minutes apart. Called my doctor now I'm on my way to l&d to be assessed. This might be the day. Tryn not to be to excited in case they send me home.
Avatar f tn Contractions hurt a lot. Sometimes women want to give up or go the easy way and take drugs. But your body is made for it. Push in out the baby is hard work but doesn't hurt that much its just the contractions but as soon as the baby cones out all the pain instantly disappears. Just remember to stay calm and breath.
9790167 tn?1405909589 So I went to the hospital yesterday to check on baby and my contractions and i am in 1st stage labor. I have been having contractions for two days now but the doctor said that I am only 85% thinned out. I am just wondering if there are ways to help thin out quicker. Because I wouldnt be in labor for no reason so i mind as well help move things along quicker.
Avatar n tn And i am still in alot of pain and my contractions still havent eased up . Am i in labor ? Should i go get another opinion ?
9171934 tn?1405180032 I been in labor for 13 hours and let me tell you....
Avatar f tn t strong enough to indicate any reason I was in labor, (even tho my contractions felt like they were ripping a hole through me and i was in tears lol) when I got to the hospital at 9 pm they were five minutes apart and I was only dilated 2 cm. They told me they would check me again and if there were no changes i had to go home. So i got up and started doing jumping jacks and squats lol. By 8 AM the next morning they were 2 minutes apart and I was dilated 6 cm, gave birth that day!
Avatar f tn I have been going through this since last week. I am also 36w 6d. I had an apt today though and Dr doesn't think ill make it through the night. I was in labor and delivery for 12 hrs last week contractions were 2 min apart and everything stopped.
Avatar f tn Yay finally had my baby girl. Went in thought my water broke i was only 2cm so it was a false alarm but later that night I had contractions all night into Sunday and finally went back to the hospital on Sunday dilated to 7 cm she was born Monday at 120 am.i was 39 weeks 3days was way beyond ready for her to be here.
4447476 tn?1399396565 I had contractions at 32 weeks and i was a fingertip dialated. Had to get a shot to stop contractions and my daughter managed to stay in until i was 38+3.
5110781 tn?1378361950 When I get bh contractions I have this weird feeling in my throat like kinda of a nauseous feeling and it goes away once the bh stop. So it might be normal.
Avatar f tn If you are really worried go to labor & delivery next time the contractions start. Have you been checked to see if you've dilated any?
