Nav:  My spinning baby, born 4/25  post #1 of 6 Thread Starter 
My EDD was 4/20, and this was baby #3.  For a week I was having
contractions that weren't leading to labor.  Saw my MW on
saturday 4/23 for a prenatal visit and she checked me I was 2cm
and 70% effaced.  On Easter (4/24) I was having contractions
every 10 mins that felt like labor contractions but never got
closer together.  I decided I was tired of contracting every 10
minutes and thought a walk would help them speed up or stop if
it wasn't really labor.  I went for a walk around 7 that brought
them 6 mins apart within an hour.  Because this way baby #3 and
I had been having cx for a week, I thought this meant a fast
labor was coming. At 10 I met my MW at the hospital for her to
check me... 4cm.  So, I walked around for awhile and she
admitted me into the waterbirth
