Help - coping with contractions
Have been in labour since yesterday when my waters suddenly broke at 41+1. Today they have been getting increasingly painful, but also increasingly more erratic & irregular as this morning i was having fairly regular but less painful contractions.
Have been in hospital for monitoring and all is ok... but im finding it harder and harder to cope with the contractions when they come. Trying everything I possibly can to deal with the pain at home. Baths, paracetomal, birthing ball, swivelling hips, everything - baby is lying back to back so think this why it might be quite painful. My question is, can i just demand pain relief at hospital even if i am not having regular contractions.
Im due in for an induction in the morning if nothing gives tonight, but dont think i go that long without any sleep, and its virtually impossible to rest at all with all this pain!!!
Help, im pathetic, i know lol xxx
