Heads up

For all of you poor people in the dark. Yesterday about 2:00pm I started having labor pains. They started 1 every ten minutes and dropped down to 1 every five minutes. They were strong enough to make me stop what I was doing and "concentrate." My water did not break or anything so I gave it some time. My parents got the boys around 4:15, contractions were still every 5 minutes.

We left to the hospital just in case around 4:30. Got to the hospital and contractions were back up to 9-12 minutes apart and fading :(

Nurse lady got mad at me because I suck at drinking water and long story short, I have an ugly UTI which is probably the cause of the contractions. They gave me fluids, prescription, and scolding and sent me home :(
Got to eat a wonderful dinner date with hubby, picked up kids around 9:30 PM and slept very hard when I got home.

Finals are over, papers are done.....this baby needs to come out. I need a trampoline or something. I am going to request to have membranes stripped tomorrow at the OB and we shall see if anything happens.......

Do NOT try castor oil, you can always try the one thing that works best, its how you got into this situation. ;)

castor oil worked for stacey and mother mother inlaw more than once. I dont think I would try it but if you get desperate.
