Lord God I pray that You would give Emily the rest that she needs, the peace that she needs and the endurance and strength that she needs from you. Lord I pray that her labor would start, that her contractions be effective and she would be able to do what she needs to do to work with them. Keep her and her baby safe. Give her husband and midwife team wisdom, love and strength as well as they labor with her. Thank you Father for making her fearfully and wonderfully made, and for this new little life. Amen.

I finally fell asleep around 12:00. I woke up at 3:00 with a backache. It is now 5:12 and I am having contractions (that I feel mostly in my back) about every 7 minutes. Laying in bed makes it hurt more so I am not able to sleep. I am trying to let Chris sleep until at least 6:00.

YAY Emily!!!!!


ugh...back labor.....get on your hands and knees and see if you can get that baby to turn...obviously he is putting pressure in the wrong places right now. Back labor is very hard (I was in it for 25 hours with my first and NO ONE told me that I could flip the baby to get it to stop!!!!! ...stupid hospitals. Anyway my first was born facing up so he was turned around backwards the whole time which is what led to the back labor)

Last time the midwife checked (last Friday) he was not posterior, but he could have turned since then.

I am tired but can't sleep.

I am also very hungry. Any suggestions for breakfast?

oh yeah....he could have turned...easily. Or he could just have his head turned in a position that puts pressure in the wrong places and is causing the back labor. IME hands and knees on the bed is more comfortable when baby is turned wrong anyway...so it can't hurt to try it, right.

hmmm...breakfast.......I suggest something with protein...nothing with too much fat (cause that just sounds gross to me anyway most of the time, but esp when in labor).
(I was just trying to figure out what to eat too...I woke up hungry, had to pee, and now I can't go back to sleep....I think I will go fix me an egg...if we have tomatoes I may fix an egg omelet!!! YUM!!!)

Ladies, I need prayer right now. I am in extreem pain. The contractions are coming hard and fast. I already feel like I can't do it. The midwife is on her way.

Praying for you Emily!!! If you haven't woke Chris up yet, I would do that so you have some support. You can do this!! God will give you the strength for each contraction/minute of it.

You can do it! One way or another, this means you'll have a babe-in-arms very soon.

Emily- We are praying- time to get some help if you haven't already. A shower and being on hands and knees (do you have a birthing ball to lay over?) can help- you can do this!!!

Emily - having JUST been there ... like YESTERDAY, let me say that you CAN do this - your body was designed to do this, and although it is hard hard hard work, it is soooooooo worth it!!

I felt my contractions mostly in my back as well, and Gwen wasn't posterior - try the double hip squeeze position - it saved my life!

ETA: When my midwives arrived, I was feeling similar ... their being there really helped ... it also helped that I was 6 cm already!! Hopefully you're feeling that way because you're well along in your labour!

You can do it. You can do it.

I will pray that the Lord give you strength for what He designed your body to do.
