debating on whether or not to go to the hospital to get checked. my doctor won't check me until I'm 40 weeks and I've been having cramping and contractions but I suck at timing them. feels like I have to go #2 all the time and he's just gonna fall right out. do u think I should go to get checked?
since you have been having these prodromal labor signs, you will know when it's real because it won't feel anything like what you've been experiencing. Trust me on that. Your body is preparing itself and the good thing is that since you're having so many contractions off and on, when you go into active labor you may get to the hospital already at 4 or 5 cm. I had prodromal labor with my 3rd for about 2 weeks and got to the hospital when active labor started and i was already 6cm
yea I have the app and I suck at using it. they'll come and go I know I'm not in active labor but the fact that I don't know what's going on in there is bothering me and making me anxious. I'll be walking and pretty much double over in pain and have to concentrate through it. but they're definitely not regular. I've had constant period pains for like a week now and my back is always throbbing. I've heard so many different stories of labor I'm scared I'm not gonna know what's wat @arivera64
use a timing app
If it was active labor it's not likely you'd be able to make a post asking if you should go in. You'd likely be in too much pain. Try timing them for an hr first before going in.
Failed 3hour Glucose test ?
I have gestational diabetes ? now I have to stick my finger 4 times a day and log it . I also have to take a class , and go get another ultrasound sound done to check up on baby girl . I pray everything gets better
I go to bathroom every second and I have round ligament pain all the time
if my babies are born between now(33 weeks) and 36 weeks and I'm having a c section and they have to go to the nicu do i get time with them at all or not until i am able to go to the nicu?

Well I was about to go to bed...and then I get stung by this thing.
GAME TIME
never have I ever..
And that's normal. You'll know when it's time. You're gonna get 2 or 3 good contractions that feel nothing like what you've been feeling lately and you're gonna say oh shit let's go.....it's time lol
