So I finally called my doctors office because I've been having cramps/contractions/Braxton hicks. Idk it's my first pregnancy to get this far. But they aren't stopping I've had them for about 3 days and they come every 15-20 minutes. They were only mildly uncomfortable at first but now there worse. they take my breath away and I can't move. Plus I have what I'm pretty sure is a yeast infection too [I've been eating my weight in yogurts lol]. My next appointment wasn't supposed to be until June 10th. When I called to schedule a sooner one for my issues the receptionist said she can't because I already have one scheduled and can't get a new appointment till after that one! I said I wanted to talk to my doctor personally and she said she would leave a message for her to call me.

Is that normal? I've never heard of having to wait

@bbyenolan22, you go to the l&d unit in the hospital & tell them what's going on. they'll hook you up to monitors.

Go to L&D and tell them what's wrong. That's what I did when I had cramping and less fetal movement.
Thanks! definitely will @tae23
call the ER receptionist they will be able to answer your questions on where to go in your area
Thanks ladies! I'm thinking if they don't call I'm definitely gonna go to L&D. If I go how exactly does that work? I'm sorry I've never been in labor and delivery before. Do I go to like an ER and they have to send me or do I have to just go straight to a labor and delivery unit and tell the receptionist what's going on? Our local ER doesn't do any labor and delivery so they send you by ambulance to a non hospital and if I could just go there on my own it'd probably be easier but I'm not sure how it works @parkers_mommy @momof1and1ontheway @cindylou
if you're concerned you can go to L&D they're monitor you. I had contractions at 23 weeks & didn't know it. I just went in because my stomach hurt & I wasn't feeling normal & im so glad I did.
i hope*
@bbyenolan22, oh no. not keeping water down, dont wait too long okay. inhope your okay! keep us updated! :)
i had contractions for 2 days that were about 20 min apart after they got painful to where i couldn't stand i came in and was in labor id go just to make sure
Oh damn that sucks. I know my dr office is just as frustrating - I just keep calling till they get annoyed and call me back :)
That would be great! my obgyn gave me a number and said call anytime if I have issues but it goes straight to this receptionist! @danamarie
I've been drinking water a lot but for some reason it seems to upset my tummy and water comes right back up :/ They said she would call by end off hours today which is in less than 2 hours so if I don't hear back or it gets any worse I'm definitely gonna go @momof1and1ontheway
I have a nurses line I can call for a consult and can get me in earlier if they deem it necessary.
go into labor and delivery. if you feel somethings wrong, then go. plus drink lots of water. might be a littke dehydrated
