31 weeks tomorrow and 70% thinned and 1cm dialated...the Dr seemed worried yesterday and hooked me up to a contraction monitor..had no contractions yesterday. had to go back up today and they hooked me up again and I had one contraction in a half hour..wasn't able to see a Dr but my nurse said take it super easy til my next apt (on the 4th). I'm not on bed rest or anything but should I be worried?!?!?
@mrodriguez0305 try relaxing and drinking lots of water take it as easy as you can until you see the dr again just to make sure
@b3autifulm3ss thanks!! all my mom's kids were early including me. she was on progesterone too I thought they'd do something like that for me but haven't. I didn't even feel the contraction I had at the clinic because I was super crampy alresdy(I had one this morning and it made me cry instantly) and she told me to take Tylenol so I can get rid of the extra cramps and know when I'm contracting. took a Tylenol 2 hours ago and still alot of cramps so not sure if it's contractions or not.
@mrodriguez0305 i am on progesterone shots for preterm labor with this pregnancy because my water broke at 36 weeks with my last... BH contractions can even thin you out because of the pressure the baby is putting on your cervix thats why when they want you to progress in labor they have you walk so that the babies head can put pressure on your cervix and thin you out/dilate you.
and @b3autifulm3ss how/why do u know this? what kind of things thin me out?! I barely even had sex for the last 2 months because it hurts more than anything and I don't do much. only work 2 hours a day!!
and lots of tenderness on my stomach and cramping. they weren't going to check me until I said I noticed a little bit of blood. she said my cervix is extremely sensitive she barely touched it and it started bleeding again.
@mrodriguez0305 ideally you are going to make it atleast another 4 weeks minimum... if it were me i would take it easy and not do much to try not to thin out or dilate anymore...
oh wow! I apologize. I should have read your previous post.
I'll be thinking about you. Try not to stress in the mean time:)
