My baby was 2/5 engaged n it felt as tho I was being punched down there but it wasn't anything like a constant pain, but mines breech at the minute so not had it for a bit, lol isn't there something they could have done to speed it up :/

[amandalee24]

yes. i went yesterday and they sent me home. and said come back when there three to five mins apart. it's my first baby. it's like horrible menstrual cramps. they come on the dot and last thirty sec some Time's longer. would this be same feeling If baby was engaging.

[amandalee24]

bump

[amandalee24]

thank you. And yes i did bath. didn't work out very well.

If they're not unbearable then it's probably too soon to go in. I was told to come in if my contractions were 3-5 minutes apart or I couldn't walk/talk/breath through them. Have you tried taking a bath or shower at all? The hot water can help the pain a little bit. Most women have to find their own comfort zone and what works best for them. Sometimes being on all fours helps, counter pressure, lying on your side, walking, etc all might help.

[amandalee24]

ha. thanks. do you know any tricks to sleep or ease pain.  there not intolerable. enough so i can't sleep it's day two. they say this is easy labour period and to rest.

If they're really painful or unbearable you can go now. The worst is that they'll send you home. Good luck!
