I seem to be in labor.....

I had a few mild cx around 11 but still fell asleep. A contraction woke
me around 1:30am and I've been up ever since.
These feel like the real deal. They are erratic-coming at 4-10 minutes
apart lasting 45-60 seconds or so. The farther apart the stronger they
are, the close together
ones are mild. I haven't woken my husband or called anyone yet. I'm
hoping to let everyone sleep as long as possible. They are sloowwlly
getting closer together. I figure I have until sunup before I HAVE to
start calling and waking people, I'd to get everyone up at this ungodly
hour for a false alarm. Although if this doesn't stop I'll probably wake
my Mom at 5:30 as she has a 2 1/2 hour drive.
The baby seems to be fine and is pretty active.
I'll update you if I can, if you don't hear from me assume the best :-)

Good luck, Karen :-) Hope this is a real deal and you get to hold your baby
soon!

Sounds like false labor to me. Real labor isn't close then not and baby
usually isn't very active at all. Course I may be wrong. Who knows maybe
your contractions will become more predictable soon.

Good luck! I wish you a safe and quick labor delivery and recovery.

I'm late responding to this, Karen, so I'll bet you're holding your new baby
by now! I hope everything went great. I'm looking forward to reading your
announcement and birth story!
