Ok. She doesn't have any contractions yet...no panting or visible discomfort. Just wanting to be in her box. So, do I need to worry how long she continues just that? Or...when she starts contracting and it takes longer than 3-6 hours...then call?
Basically...if first stage includes contractions and panting...she's not there yet...do I need to worry that she's been in her box since early morning with no visible progression?
