Alright I need advice
I’ve been having contractions since Saturday night around 10 had bloody show yesterday at 7 am went to l&d no cervical change was sent home to see if it died down although they all confirmed I was having strong actual contractions. I continued having consistent contractions since then lost more bloody mucus plug at 7pm and pain wise the contractions are worse but not so bad I can’t walk or talk through them. I have only been able to get about 2 hours of good sleep in a nap yesterday because I’m tossing and turning so much at night. Am I stuck just laboring it out? How can I get some relief? Tylenol, yoga ball, walking and hot showers/bath are only helping so much.

The bathtub with Epsom salt was an absolute game changer for me
why can’t we just have epidurals as needed. Like hook me up to something for. Few days… why do they let us be tortured. It’s like oh your pregnant deal with all pains
I has prodromal labor for 10 days! The one thing that would help ease the pain of the stronger contractions was a heating pad. Walking just made it worse and wasn’t progressing my labor. I did a lot of just sitting with my feet up the last couple days before he finally decided to show up! And then my labor went very fast!

For me walking made it worse laying sitting soaking in the tub didn't help at all Tylenol didn't help at all and I've not slept since Thursday (10/17) i just had her 10/19
