We're your BH Contractions ever painful like period cramps? I have an OB appointment tomorrow and I plan on mentioning this. I've been having these 'contractions' on and off since last night but they get more painful at night. they aren't consistent so I know they are BH but I'm curious to when I should call if needed?
it also could be dehydration so don't stress or worry too much :) that's what they're probably going to check first anyways.
@ilyric, thank you! I started doing that. so far, they keep coming back. @rainbow_mommys2021 I packed. a bag to take with me tomorrow just I'm case I have to stay. I'm only 30 weeks, so I'm really nervous. hopefully they can figure something out.
I'm 34 weeks and they kept me and observed me for almost 15 hours before they could finally stop the contractions and they first gave me an iv of fluids and that didn't stop them so they gave me a blue pill to try an stop them and some morphine and it didn't help neither and then they gave me an orange pill and that finally made them stop after 2 doses and then at 7 am the contractions finally stopped.
Try not to last on your back, rest on your left side, use a heating pad and make sure to stay hydrated! :)
I've been having the same exact issue but don't know what to do. Idk why it's worse at night! I also have an appointment tomorrow morning and was just going to tell my doctor about it and see what he thinks
@rainbow_mommys2021, what did they do? I have an appointment first thing in the morning. how far along are you?
They will keep coming back, it's your body practicing for the big day.
