Mama, at 40 weeks you're right on time, but honestly, text or call your OB now kahit anong oras, don't wait for discharge pa. Since you have high pain tolerance, better safe than sorry, they need to check you para makita if it's the real thing or practice contractions lang. A few of us mums din nag-panic about what counts as "real labor pain," but the best move talaga is to let your doctor assess, hindi mag-guess. You're doing great, and your OB won't mind, yan ang job nila! Keep us posted, mama!
