Help! I'm 40 weeks and 1 day and I'm starting to have mild cramping kinda like when I first get my period!!! I also feel a lot of pressure lower in my stomach! Should I call my dr in the morning if it doesn't go away or am I having contractions or what should I do 🤔
I felt that but I also felt a tightness with the cramping then it would gradually let up and come back a bit later. Trust me you won't have any doubt you're having a contraction when the ones you need to go in for hit you lol they're extremely uncomfortable. I also don't know your hospitals policy but if I could walk and talk through the contraction I got sent home even though my doctor told me to go in if they we're 5 minutes apart which they were. If you think you're in labor and you feel like it's time to go in then go. the worst that could happen is you get sent home until they're stronger
@babytilley, @landynsmommie18 she said if he's not out by this coming Tuesday I'm gonna be induced! Bc I wasn't dilated at all at my last visit! Like now I feel fine (which is weird bc when I posted this I felt some cramps)
And also when I went to see her on Tuesday she said my baby was starting to drop and so I would start to feel more pressure later on this week if he doesn't come out so I'm not sure if he's just pushing down still @babytilley
It's mild cramping though and it goes away and comes back and my dr said to go to labor and delivery if I have contractions 2-5 mins apart @babytilley
@landynsmommie18, lol trust me I wanna see my baby boy too! @maciecakes I'm just afraid that I won't know when it's the real thing! I don't wanna end up going if it's not 2-5 mins apart bc they will send me home within a few hours or so. And my dr is out of town this weekend so she told me she won't be able to deliver my baby if I have him this weekend! But she did tell me I could give her a call if I had any concerns!
