Is this labor?

Okay, since I've had a baby before, I know this isn't what labor is really like but waiting to find out if we can leave yet 45 hours from now to bring our son home is similar to labor pains!  I'm feeling sweaty, nauseous, shaky, nervous, anxious and have no question that an epidural would help make the "pain" go away right now.  I remember counting my contractions on a newspaper the night before I had Kendal and I think that counting down the clock until tomorrow morning when we "may" find out if we can get our son is similar.  It hurts more and more the closer it gets.  "H" we are coming, we promise.  Trying to remember scripture that reminds us that things are in God's hands and that He has a plan for us.
