contractions starting and stopping.

Ugh getting so annoyed. I'm 37+4 and I've been having contractions since Monday afternoon. They get stronger but end up being further apart theN stopping for a couple of hours :(  baby needs to decide whether it wants to come out or not lol

Was kind of hoping all those false contractions meant that something was happening. Just had a check up and no further progress with dilating or thinning :( my doctor said to go for a  walk especially up hill and she also strongly recommended getting an exercise ball. So I stopped on my way home and bought my ball, pumping it up now and can't wait to use it! Hoping it helps because she is already talking about inducing me if I don't have further progress at my 39 week appointment.

Oh my goodness this is so me! I'm 37+3 and for the last week I've been getting contractions. They'll start and get closer and then when they get to about 5 min apart they will slowly start to die off. I was excited at first but now I'm just annoyed. My poor mother has to be sick of false alarms by now and I don't even tell my husband about it anymore because then he just gets all anxious.
