I want to thank kimberly and jp for their reply. My main questions are I think quite simple.
How will I know I am in labour? I mean between the difference in the false and real, I don't want to have to make 5 trips to the hospital guessing and hoping this is it. My next question is: When will my belly drop? Is it any time soon, or do I still have more waiting? When is it too late for a baby to not be breech? (the thought of a c-section scares me) Last but not least. Epidural...yes or no? Everyone I know whos had a baby says I will regret it if I dont get it, can anyone else give me insight on what it is like without it? Thanks!

You will know you are in labor when the pain does not go away...but dont wait too long to see if it is going to stop. My belly dropped in my eighth month, but it is different for everybody. I am not sure how far along you are, either. I worried about my babies not being turned the right way both times, but they came out fine and I have no idea when they turned. Epidural -I highly recommend it for a less stressful delivery. Especially if you freak out easy like me. (I have done it both ways.)

I dropped at 27 weeks but I had preterm labor. I knew when I had my preterm labor because it was extremely painful. But then when my Dr. scheduled my induction I went in expecting to be on pitocin and all only to find I was 5 cm with no pain! It can be one weird ride. Best wishes.
