NEED CONTRACTION ADVICE ASAP:
SO ALL DAY I HAVE BEEN HAVING MENSTRUAL LIKE CRAMPS AND BRAXTON HICKS. WELL AS THE DAY HAS GONE BY THE MENSTRUAL LIKE CRAMPS HAVE GOTTEN MORE AND MORE INTENSE. I'VE BEEN LOSING MUCUS PLUG ALL DAY. AND NO THERE ISN'T BLOOD IN IT. I AM 2CM DILATED.
BUT IS THIS NORMAL ? I'M LITERALLY IN PAIN CRYING.
@babymommy_2k16, I found it very difficult to keep hydrated past 30 weeks... maybe get you some Gatorade... and really try to drink as much as you can... my hubby bought several water bottles for me, I filled them the night before, put them in the fridge and tried to drink them all the next day... 😅 but I found it SO hard!
no nothing . just told ,me to come home and rest and come back if it gets worst. and I was dehydrated, but they kept Giving me water .@dreamermom
@babymommy_2k16, glad to hear you got checked... did they give you anything? IV fluids? Sometimes dehydration will trigger contractions
@dreamermom @clara_eakin @zaysmomma I stayed there until just now , they had kept me. I was still 2CM and my cervix was still thick. so they sending me home . but I was definitely contracting. baby boy isn't ready yet 😩😟
@dreamermom hopefully. once the pain ease up I'm going to labor and delivery , I will keep u posted
@babymommy_2k16, I wish you a safe, smooth, and quick delivery! Sounds like you will be meeting you little one, very soon!
Trust me I was the same way when I was in labor I waited until they were one minute apart because I was stubborn thinking I was just over reacting but once I got there my water broke its better to just go In or if you don't know for sure you can always call labor and delivery where you will be delivering and see what they tell you
Yeah ur having contractions. If it's getting hard to breathe it's them. Good luck momma u sound like it's about time
@dreamermom yes I will just have to go to the hospital. I am literally stuck in my kitchen chair . I can barely even cough or talk
@babymommy_2k16, if it is causing you to be 'stuck' until it passes those are the real deal not Braxton hicks... that I do remember! I could not talk through them... when mine started they were already at 2 minutes apart some came one after another, 4-5 in a row...
@babymommy_2k16, personally I feel it better to send you home... than risk not making it there because you waited too long to go... but that's just me... plus they can check the baby... make sure there is nothing to be worried about... but you have to trust yourself and decide when it's the right time for you!
@dreamermom the told me go to l&d but I don't want them to send me home. I don't Wan them to be like false alarm
I just downloaded the app , the cramps coming constantly within about 2 minutes apart. and braxton hicks.
, I can barely move,like I'm seriously stuck . I'm grabbing everything I can grab. what do contractions feel like ?? @heatherlg88
I don't personally have any experience that far along, my first was born at 33w2d... however, if it's that intense... I think it would be best to error on safety, and maybe call your doc/midwife... then maybe head to labor and delivery... always trust your gut... some women don't fall into the 'typical' signs... I never expected to have my daughter early... but I was not feeling right, so I called... and it was for the best... because my body was not going to stay pregnant for long!
I was on and off the couple days before. I definitely think it'll be your time soon! 💙
