False Alarm......

Well all night long on Saturday I was having contractions not strong, but pretty forceful, and very irregular after a bath and some Tylenol they didn't ease up so I called the doctor at 8:30 am and she told me to come on in since I was already dilated. So we got there and I was checked still 2cm 50% effaced so she watched me for an hour, I was contracting irregularly for the whole hour, some were 2 mins apart others were 5 so very inconsistent. After the 1st hour there was little change but she wanted to wait another hour since my contractions were so close together and pretty strong. Well after another hour I was 3cm 60% effaced so she made the determination I was in labor and admitted me. We got comfortable in our room and she started the IV, well after I got 500mL's of fluid the contractions stalled out and after 6 hours of walking, sleeping and very spaced out contractions I was released. So we had a major false alarm, my doctor thought for sure we are gonna have a baby and so did I. Those IV fluids was all it took so now we just wait and see. So needless to say we are still pregnant and I am now having contractions on and off.
