I'd probably start getting my last things done. Shower, if you wanted; bag in the car; make any calls. Perhaps just head out to the hospital and putter around there if it's a long drive.

I would wait until 1:30 or so and call your doc if they keep up like that. Those are close together even though they aren't a minute long. Any other gross signs like losing your mucus plug or anything?

Also, yayyy maybe baby!!

Oh yeah and definitely take a shower and eat something if you are hungry. Iirc you want to go med free so as long as you are pretty close to the hospital I would probably hang out at home.

That's always what mine looked like in early labour. Keep moving around, do some lunges or squats!

I don't think I can eat, I feel like I'm going to puke. If the contractions stay consistent over the next 15-20 mins, I'll call the on call dr/midwife.

Eeeeeeeek.

I liked this post because you were admitted, not because you're in pain. Good luck and labor dust and all that!

I was admitted at 2cms with my first and she was born 8 hours later. It could go quickly

I hope you have a fast uncomplicated labor!
