Huge hugs Naomi. I don't really have advice but just want you to know that you're not alone. I've had a seriously unpleasant pregnancy this time around too, with various things happening along the way to make it very stressful. I spent last Tuesday night in hospital and had contractions for 6.5 hours that went nowhere and I was feeling so completely deflated and upset over it that I was very, very close to asking my OB for an induction the next day to be done with it.
I'm not sure that I've really done anything to cope - more like just trying to survive it - so can't offer any suggestions other than to just take it as easy as you can. I've also done something I've resisted until now, and am taking panadol each night before I go to bed. My little girl is a serious wriggler and I feel black and blue, as well as having BH on and off. I think the panadol is the only thing helping me to sleep.
Take care. We just need to tell ourselves that it can't last forever, and soon we'll both have beautiful babies in our arms that will make all of this seem a distant memory.
Hugs to you too....I couldnt imagine being in "labour" for 6.5hrs to have it die off.....
i might start the panadol thing, if it helps it cant be bad can it? i just dont want to rely on it, iykwim....
im about to go to bed soon, so might go take a couple now and see if that helps??
Im looking forward to this being a distant memory LOL
thankyou - look forward to your BA!! im positive it wont be that far away {{hugs}}
