Going into Labor Take 2

Yesterday we were back at the Hospital in Triage. I started getting really bad contractions again that where 5 minutes apart earlier in the morning. So we went in and they checked me and I was at 5 cm now. After an hour they checked me again, no change. The contractions started going to 3 minutes apart and I start having back labor (yay!). Two hours later they check me, STILL NO CHANGE and CONTRACTIONS ARE STILL 3 MINUTES APART!!! I get hooked up to an IV and told to wait some more. Because I am only 36 weeks, I don't get to have any medicine to help speed up labor. I ended up staying in Triage for 7 hours with back labor and contractions 3 minutes apart. After going through 2 bags of whatever I was hooked up to, the contractions finally spaced apart to about 8 minutes. Finally my Doctor said that I could stay in the hospital drugged up till I make progress (which will be never) or go home drugged up and wait it out. I decided to go home. They gave me 2 Lortabs and an Ambein.

And yes, I was completely messed up for the night...

I am in labor right now, I have been in labor for the past 5 days, but nothing is happening. I am still having contractions that are 8 minutes apart. I wish that my body would figure this whole thing out because I am miserable. I really don't want to be like this for the next 2 weeks. I will be induced by January 10th if nothing happens.

I hate this...
