(no subject)
Here are the things I am currently feeling:
Bored, irritated, confused, uncomfortable, frustrated.
I have been given few if any guidelines about what I can or can't do. All I know is when I'm doing anything but lying down I'm in pain and contracting, so I pretty much do nothing.
I've got no idea when I draw the line and need to call the doctor. I'm sick of spending hours in triage and that is their only response when you call and tell them you are having contractions (even when you make it clear that this is how things have been for the last 8 weeks or so.)
So, I try to gauge when something is different enough for me to need to call. Is the nausea a problem? How long do the back pains need to last before I get concerned about them. Every time things are checked they look good, and that is awesome. Then I'm just left with confusion. I've had 3 contractions in the last 10 minutes while typing this post, lying on my left side, drinking glass after glass of water and gatorade.
