I hate false labor...

Ugh, so I started having contractions last Wednesday and Thursday, but they went away as soon as I SEDL'd (stop, empty (pee), drink water, and lie down) so that was lame, but at least a good sign that something was happening naturally on it's own. Then Saturday, around 6:30 pm, I started to have regular contractions around every 9-15 min that were lasting a min long each. Granted they weren't that painful, so I wasn't sure what to think of them, but still, we got super excited thinking that labor might be starting for real! Yah, well, they totally went away by about 11, so what a buzz kill. Such a tease! Why can't it just happen already!?
