Question

Has anyone tested positive to the fetal fibronectin test around week 28? If so how many weeks until you delivered? I tested positive today and I'm having occasional contractions, but my cervix is still perfectly fine! We got the steroid shots to be safe. Just curious of others' experience with this.

I'm not sure @lierci I was having symptoms that concerned her so she did the test

I've been taking that test since I was 24 weeks but it always comes back negative so far but I'm also on pregestrone which I've been taking every 23 weeks!

Can you chose to have one ? Or DR has to order it??

@lierci, a positive result puts you at risk for preterm labor
