Ridiculous!

Okay, so here goes yet another pregnancy tirade, but I think this one is more justified than any I've posted yet. Last night about 8 I started having regular contractions, real ones, not the braxton hicks I've been having for weeks. By 10 they were coming every 4 minutes. By 3 am they were coming every 2 minutes and stayed that way till we went in at 4. Seriously, clockwork, every 2 minutes, and there was no mistaking these for anything other than real labor. So we go in and literally the minute they hook me up to the monitors they stop. Completely. So we sit there for an hour and a half to see if they come back, but oh no, they didn't! Are you kidding me!?!?!?! How do you go from hard contractions every 2 minutes to nothing?!?!?!? This has officially been the most ridiculous night of my life and I'm so irritated and sleep deprived about it I can hardly see straight(but honestly that's probably the lack of sleep more than anything).

that stinks, i went in twice before Brielle was born, and had the exact same problem! ha ha....but hey look on the upside not to much longer, well...hopefully! and to answer your question, yes he has to take them everywhere! i make him leave them in the car when we go in stores, but he is seriously attached to them!
