Contraction Q....timing
First off let me just clarify I'm NOT experiencing this...just want to be prepared.
Silly Q...but how do you time the contractions...
You start when it begins & go to when..the next one starts or when the pain eases?
Thx.

Re: Contraction Q....timing
You time them like from the beginning of the contraction the beginning of the next one.
So if your contraction starts at 7:31pm, lasts 1 minute, then your next one starts at 7:35pm, your contractions are 4 minutes apart.
HTH!

I agree with Leslie!!! What could be bad about nipple stimulation? Maybe your hubby can help you out in other ways too! Tell him to take one for the team!!

Ladies, there must me some times when you don't want your nipplies stimulated. Don't you ever have an overly sensitive nipple day? Or are those your best days?
Cindy, I'm here waiting for news!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Contraction Q....timing
We'll see what happens ladies, to be honest, no rush here now that I know Sat. w/b the latest...I'm still comfortable, still relaxing & trying to get sleepings while I can. We also have this house business going on & interviews, so its been busy here. Darlene will let you guys know what the deal is w/ baby.
Tomorrow we have another dr appt w/ the biophysical...we'll see how big baby is & have a clearer sense of what is going on....
Hope y'all are doing well. All I can say is I can't wait for a huge Mudslide and/or margarita.....

Mudslide's are the DH's specialty. I'll see if I can sneak it into the hospital in a McDonalds cup.
