70 percent effaced and 3 centimeters dilated. I drank castor oil for my first and it worked just fine. I drank some last night and it gave me very strong contractions (didnt even get any diarrhea or anything and I was fully hydrated) - The contractions were five minutes apart at 1am when I got there. I was there all morning and they were literally not even a minute apart and they got STRONGER...they checked me to see if anything changed with my cervix and it didnt. So they had me walk for an hour - that didnt change anything either. The contractions continued to be very strong...when I got home at 7AM I rested until 1PM (now) and the contractions arent very much and they dont hurt as bad as they did. Whats going on? At the hospital they said that I am probably in early labor and will more than likely see me back tonight, and now they are altogether pretty much gone...???

With my third pregnancy I also thought I was in labor one day because the contractions were strong and painful and pretty regular. But after spending the whole morning at the birthing center, and then walking through the mall with my husband for hours, I finally went back home b/c the contractions stopped.
That night I went to bed extra early and sure enough, was woken up the next morning at 3 a.m. with painful contractions AND my water was leaking out, so it was the real deal.
I had my baby that day at 1:00 p.m.
So....yeah....you might be back tonight or tomorrow morning for "the real thing."
Congratulations!

It is claimed that once having your first child, your stomach will probably be higher quicker than it used to be for your first, along with your moment child. So that mentioned, I consider It's quite often a prime threat that your child is kicking! YAY! (: I consider you'll absolutely believe matters quicker than later along with your moment being pregnant.

If you have access to a beach go walk in the sand! That's what put me in labour. Your body has to work harder to walk in the sand over walking on pavement! Hit the beach go for a walk!
