Contractions

So...TONS of painful contractions last night. They started about 10:30 and came every 6-8 minutes after that for about 3 hours. They got stronger/more painful, although I still wouldn't say they were that bad (maybe a 3 on a 1-10). I finally got out of bed to finish packing my bag, shower, finish up some bills etc b/c I was just sure that we would be on our way to the hospital in the next few hours. However, they stopped when I sat up/stood up. I stayed up for over an hour, but they never came back. So, I went back to bed and they started up again! Same frequency, same pain. This time they only lasted for an hour though and then I was able to sleep. I haven't had any this morning yet. I swear I'm going to go crazy trying to analyze every little thing. We just want to meet these boys and are both getting so anxious!
