0 days. Labor contractions. Maternity hospital

My contractions during childbirth began at night at 2-2:30 a.m. (according to the law of meanness exactly when I would NOT want to) :)

At first it is the first, sharp, but not strong urges - pain in the lower abdomen and lower back. The moment when you kind of understand that this is a contractions during childbirth, but the brain is still trying to find a different reason. I began to walk around the apartment, the pains became periodic and I realized that it was they!
My contractions during childbirth intervals looked like this:
First, every 5-10 minutes for 10-20 seconds of waves (as I called these pains)
Further, the duration of the waves began to increase to 30 seconds-40 seconds. Soreness intensified.
My contractions during childbirth were swift and very frequent. I suppose that a few hours before (when I was taking a bath) the water had gone. So I don’t know how this “water leaves”.

When to go to the hospital during contractions? Fix the time. If you observe a clear frequency of contractions and if they do not end for a long time - it is worth going to the hospital. Do not pull)

A trip to the hospital. Keep it ready: a bag for the hospital and all the necessary documents. Everything was prepared and stored in the corridor.
Upon arrival at the hospital:
1. You will be registered
2. Will be sent for a preliminary check: ultrasound, examination, pressure and pulse
It was during the examination that they told me that the bubble burst, since meconium is observed, but in my case (pure-buttock presentation) it was not critical and not scary for the baby
3. Transfer to the prenatal or, as in my case, immediately to the birth chamber

With a pure-buttock presentation, I was forbidden to get up. I had all the contractions during childbirth lying down (which was personally critically unbearable for me) and yes, we agreed to epidural anesthesia. It became easier, but not by much and not for long.
Approximately 14-15 hours after the onset of contractions, the opening was only 6-7 cm. Epidural anesthesia did not restrain the pain, as the baby began an active movement towards the exit, which in turn intensified the pain for me and exhausted the strength for him.
The doctor and I decided on a cesarean.
