@nursemidwifenyela: Having contractions doesn’t always mean you’re ready for hospital admission. Sometimes the safest plan is to continue to do eatly labor at home and come back when things progress…or sooner if your provider tells you to. #earlylabor #firsttimemom #pregnancy #laboranddelivery #signsoflabor
I got sent back home at a 4 with my first and by the time I got back a few hours later I was at 6 I was so mad lol

I wish to god…they would try to send me home. I have to go 2 towns over just for Labor and Delivery. I may just end up crashing out simply for the fact that the place I have regular doctors appointments at sucks and the place I go to Labor and Delivery sucks as well (they don’t care is what I mean they suck)

this is the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever heard. This is why people end up having babies in cars. This is stupid and I think that you need to reevaluate your plan. Let me tell you why my first child I didn’t dilate at all. I stayed at one the entire delivery. I was streaming in pain and crying and begging for an epidural and I was told by the idiot nurses that I wasn’t really in labor because I wasn’t progressing if they would’ve sent me home I would’ve had a baby at home. It was my first baby and I didn’t know better. I just said if this isn’t really labor what the hell do I have in store? Guess what I was really in labor. They kept checking me and nothing. Finally, the last time she checked, she walked out of the room and I felt a gut then I felt like I had to go to the bathroom. I went in the bathroom to try to go and couldn’t go. I pushed and pushed nothing would come out I came and laid back on the bed. My mom looked out. I was pushing a baby out. My mom screamed for the nurse, which didn’t believe us because I was just dilated till one. I dilated from one to 10 in seconds after my water broke, but I stayed at one for 20 hours before that. That’s just a fluke thing right that doesn’t happen. Well guess what on my second child I let them know in advance that I would be getting an epidural that I don’t dilate until the very end that I know what happens. I’m not stupid anymore. I’ve already had a child. I know what to expect. Of course the nurse is just wave you on and don’t believe you sure sure they say. I screamed and cried in pain for hours. I begged for an epidural for hours and they told me you can’t get an epidural because you’re not really in labor. They kept looking at me like I don’t know why you’re crying. I don’t know why you’re upset you’re not even in labor because you’re only dilated to one. You can imagine how pissed I wasn’t the nurse at this point for not listening to me yet again. Screamed not on the top of my lungs for a half an hour straight they kept coming and I was Gary. The other people I was pissed screamed without stopping and finally they agreed to give me an epidural even though they were pissed about it
