[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree with working remotely starting as soon as you can.  Just so you don't have to worry.  But, you could also just get an Uber home as soon as you started feeling contractions and you would likely have plenty of time to rinse off in the shower, grab your hospital bag, etc.  Most first babies take a while.

Do you have a DH/partner? You could also get that person to grab the hospital bag and come get you, and drive you to the hospital.[/quote]

Sorry, I just saw it's your second.  My bad.  But yeah, Uber home, DH meets you there, hospital together.[/quote]

My water broke at 38 weeks and hospital told me to come in,  I delayed in an hour to shower since I assumed as a ftm it would be very slow. I left the house with no contractions and 10 minutes into the 15 minutes in to the 20 minute drive i was in immense pain- arrived and they said I was 4 cm dialated and contractions every 3 minutes.  I ended up getting a en epidural and spinal and it then slowed down significantly but for a future kid I'm going immediately [/quote]
