On a boring afternoon I decide to pass the time sorting through some of my old clothes, but I'm only one minute in when I'm unexpectedly struck by sharp contractions!

On a boring afternoon I decide to pass the time sorting through some of my old clothes, but I'm only one minute in when I'm unexpectedly struck by sharp contractions! I cry out in pain, bending over and clenching my big belly as the contractions rock my body. I'm 37 weeks pregnant and my due date is soon, but not this soon! Thankfully the contractions subside and I'm able to resume sorting through my clothes, but I'm once again slammed with contractions a minute later. I've never had this happen before, contractions coming and going every minute, and I fight the urge to panic as I drop to my sofa and begin to rub my belly. My pulse is racing and a million thoughts are flashing through my mind as I desperately try to calm myself down. Is my baby coming right now? Should I call an ambulance? Overheating and feeling restricted by my clothing, I quickly strip naked and practice the breathing techniques I've learned. Will I be able to stave off these agonizing contractions or is my baby coming right here on this sofa? Find out!
