Well came to Labor and Delivery, finally, and I'm 1cm dilated already? It seems kind of early to me. But they didn't say it was abnormal. I'm having minor contractions but there's not a pattern. She said it was more like irritation. Hopefully they'll let me go home tonight. These babies need to stay in there.
@laceduplove1661, I've been listening to it. Lol. I'm so nervous now. And not that I know if they didn't mention those tests. Just making sure the leaking wasn't amniotic fluid etc. and @ktwins188 I know me too. I have to schedule an apt for my dr in the morning. He's gonna check my cervix again and make sure everything is okay. Hopefully they stay in longer.
I went into preterm labor at 28 weeks. I was 1cm and 50% effaced. Went into preterm labor at 33 weeks and when I got there I was still 1cm and 50% effaced. Having strong contractions every 1-2 minutes and after an hour had progressed to 2cm and 70% effaced. They said I have a very irritated uterus at 28 weeks and put me on restrictions. Now I'm on more but take it easy and listen to your body. When I went to the hospital they told me I shouldn't be there and I was just in a few days before with contractions. The nurse that said that felt horrible when I my daughter was trying to come and they were going to induce me because of the complications. Listen to your body and don't ignore any signs. Hope your pregnancy goes smoother.
Glad you made it to L&D...Best of luck and hoping the babies hang in there a little bit longer. If they come early then hope they come healthy as can be.
@ariellarochelle, dont stress momma. just take it easy and rest as much and as often as you can. and dont get dehydrated!
@ariellarochelle, your doctor will make sure you make it as far as possible. You probably aren't gonna have the babies any time soon ( as in the next month) don't worry too much. That WILL make the babies come too early. Stress isn't good :) just stay positive that your babies will be okay :)
@brittany_leigh @chicagmango @mrsschutte1323 my doc said he doesn't think I'm gonna make to 37 weeks. So I'm freaking out about being dilated. I don't wanna have them too early.
ive been 3cm for a month almost. you never really know when your body will start the process.
You're technically full term at 37 weeks. But twins usually come a lil early. If the dilation doesn't stop they will give you stuff to keep the babies in there
@ktwins188. Thank you. I have to call in a couple minutes and get a doctors apt for today. Hopefully everything is fine.
