Contraction log
When you think you've gone into labor, it can be difficult to think straight and remember everything as it's happening. Still, when you do make it into hospital, it can be helpful for your midwife to have a clear idea of what's been happening and establish what needs to be done.
If you think you're in labor, use this table to track when your contractions start/end and add any notable comments so your midwife can determine if labor has begun, and how far you've progressed.
