Contractions all night last night,
Scared and excited = perfectly normal! Find something to keep your mind busy - and if it's OK w/your dr...find some place to walk around (a mall or something so you don't freeze/slip on ice if it's cold where you're at)...and walk as much as you can. Hopefully that'll speed things up. Though...now that I think of it...if your water broke at the mall, that'd be a ***** Take some clean clothes and some huge pads and a towel with you just in case you have to make a fast exit.
Keep us posted!

Grocery shopping, cleaning the kitchen and laundry...'nesting.'
My non-medically educated guestimate is that you have about 24-48 hours if your contractions are consistantly 10-20 minutes apart (and not bh contractions). I know some women lose their plug a week or two early. I lost mine the day I went into labor...nothing before hand. Contractions started around midnight about 30 minutes apart and got closer and closer after that.
Good luck!

is somebody asigned the task of coming to OH - I'm thinking the MB - and posting if you are just too tired or whatever following giving birth? I mean, I would hope you would be thinking of US at such a time!
I have no advice but wish you all the best!
ETA : no advice, I have no advice - never haven given birth
once upon a time I had a group to talk about Binge Eating Disorder, and later one about Clean Eating.
PM me if you are interested in either of these.
