embarassing moment

I know there have got to be millions of women all over the world who have gone to the hospital "in labor" only to be sent home not in labor at all. However, I never expected or hoped to be one of those. Well, now I am. For those of you in your "childbearing years," let me just exhort you. It really does work...trying to induce labor at home. At least, producing consistant and strong contractions. Bummer to find out though, after almost seven hours later, that my contractions were doing nothing to get the baby out and only causing myself unnecessary pain. SUCK! (if I may say so) After going in to the hospital at 11:30pm and getting back home a quarter to 2am...really not an experience I plan to repeat. In fact, the contractions didn't stop until after 12 hours of false "labor;" and now that I remember the pain of labor, I'm really not excited about going into real labor. But, what can you do...the baby has got to come out...

...I'm an idiot.
