I'm nauseous & cramping. Can you come home."
Oh boy. This need not be happening now. All I did was take a warm bath & BAM! As soon as I got out I started feeling like crap. I'm sure its nothing. Just a few BH.
Keep me entertained till DH gets home. Tell me about your oh shit/ false alarm moments.

I had pre labor contractions for weeks before I was due. I teach and was crazy distracted every day & rush home to make sub plans in case I went in to real labor that night. After a week of that I started maternity leave early. Then contractions stopped and I had to be induced at 41 weeks!
I hope you're comfortable and resting well!

I got a stomach bug on Memorial Day this year and couldn't even keep water down. I had to go to L&D and they kept me there for hours because I was contracting due to dehydration and they thought I was going into labor.

I had preterm labor throughout my pregnancy, starting at 23 weeks.
I was about 37 weeks along and walking through SAMs club with my husband when I started having contractions every 8 minutes. They were strong and painful. I was the crazy pregnant lady in the frozen food aisle breathing heavily and gripping the shopping cart. We left and the contractions stopped by the time we got home.

How warm? With S I took a warm bath and it made me feel awful. I guess they raise your blood pressure and even more so when you're more far along.

Do you think the warm bath dehydrated you? This sounds silly, but on the weekends when I take a longer/hotter shower, I get really dizzy and tired afterward so I have to take a post-shower nap. Drink a bunch of water and maybe you'll feel better?

@petunia354: DH will be home shortly. Prob 20 min or so.
@JoyfulKiwi: Friday is my last day at work. I'll officially be a SAHW till the twins come 
@Dandelion: Warm but not near as warm as I usually do. I'm wondering if things just shifted while I was in the bath. I usually lay on one side and then lay on the other to makes sure each side gets a good soak. Otherwise my belly would never be underwater lol. I got up a min ago to get dressed and my stomach bubbled like there was a bunch of air or liquid moving. Who knows!?
The cramps stopped after I had laid down for about 15 min. Hopefully that's all it was.

@Sugar.Biscuit: I started my maternity leave two weeks before my due date. I blew a fuse in the apartment and didn't know how to fix it, so I called DH at work. He cut people off on a conference call to hang up and answer, thinking I was in labor! I was like, um... no, I just can't get the microwave to work.
After that I only texted and agreed I would only call when I really was in labor. As it happened, went into labor Sunday morning and we spent an hour debating if he should go play golf an hour and a half away with his friends (No. When your wife is IN LABOR you don't go play golf.)

I was pushing a heavy cart in Costco and started getting contractions and feeling weird. I called DH and he rushed home - he works about 1 1/2 hours away by train. By the time he boarded the train, I felt fine. Oops!

@mrsbookworm: opps indeed. DH can't drive so he had to call my mom to get a ride home. I wasn't about to try driving if things were going to continue to progress. We just had a snow storm over the weekend & the roads still slick. I'm screwed once I go into real labor. I don't trust my mom's driving. She as almost killed me twice while leaving the hospital post op. Both times she tried running the same red light...
