been to L&D? - long vent
This is my second pregnancy. DD1 is 3.5 years old and when pregnant with her NOTHNG happened. I never dilated, never had BH, nothing. I went to L&D 1x and they ended up inducing me b/c my fluid was low on a sono. I was 39 weeks.
I have 18 days left of this pregnancy. I was in L&D 2x this week! First time (Thursday night) was decreased fetal movement and while there they had trouble getting a consistent trace HR on the baby b/c of her position so I was there for 4 hours. Sent home. Told to come back Sunday for another round of monitoring.
Last night, I woke up at 3:30am with a ton of consistent contractions, bad back pain, feeling like I needed to poop (TMI), intense pressure down below etc. I wanted to wait and see how long it was going to last. In the meantime, DH got his mother to come here to watch DD and off we went (I think he was nervous!). By the time we got to L&D (35 miles away) it pretty much stopped.
Got checked. 1 cm. They sent me home.
I am so bummed. I am ready! I feel so silly with all this back and forth to the hospital.
I don't know why I care, but I feel so silly that I go and get sent home. I imagine it happens all the time, but still.
Anyone else comiserate?
ETA: spelling

Re: been to L&D? - long vent
I wouldn't worry about it at all! They are used to it and probably see other women way more! One of my friends was sent home 4 times in 3 days when she was in early labor! You are doing the right thing by going to be checked. They won't remember how many times you were there
