Contractionometer

Check out this tool for the precise measurement of contraction frequency and duration. With it in hand, I become, Stopwatch Kevin. Michelle has been taking her Brethine medication, but wow it sure doesn't seem like it is doing much. The contractions have been hitting her with such intense back pain to the point that she is literally doubled over and in tears. It's such a horrible feeling to sit by her side and not able to do much of anything. Ann suggested using a rolling pin, no not to knock her out, but to roll along her back where the pain was. It sort of helped, but really I think things just have to take their course. I don't know how long little Michelle can take this! We both hope she will not have to edure this much longer.
