Essential oils are extracted from the outer glands of leaves and plants, making them extremely concentrated sources of natural nutrients. They have a long history of remedying common cold and flu symptoms like coughs, headaches, and fatigue.
When to Go to the Hospital. Most physicians and midwives suggest contacting them when your contractions are five minutes apart and lasting 60 seconds and you have had this activity for about an hour. If a bloody show is present.
I didn't go into labour on my own, but wanted to wish you luck hun! I was told contractions every 5 mins, lasting 30 sec or more or the pain was too great to stay at home. Mar 2nd, 2009, 18:40 PM. Mar 2nd, 2009, 18:46 PM. I was told to wait until contractions were 3-4 minutes apart and getting unbearable. I managed to get to about 5 minutes apart and got scared. I think when you feel like you would like to be monitored/in a hospital, it's time to get a move on!
