@xchas thank you so much! I appreciate all the kind words and I'm glad you persisted to tell them about your pain. I called my husband and told him if I'm not feeling better by the time he gets home, I may go into the hospital to be checked. I never experienced Braxton Hicks with my first born and I don't know if this is what I'm experiencing. Pregnancy is fun, huh? I'll remember you and your baby in my prayers!

@noturprops please if you have an appointment super stress your pain if you're concerned it may be nothing but it never ever hurts to say it. I had an appointment and told them I was cramping and they chocked it up to sex irritating things like it was no big deal. I wish I would have known more but I DID tell them at least. But even if they say its ok pay attention to your body love. If it gets intense it's reason for concern and going to get checked will NEVER hurt. I'm a stubborn person and tried waiting and I never should have. I feel like I almost pushed it too long and it was only a few days. I'm glad I'm here now but it was the scariest thing I've ever been through so far. I thought for sure I was delivering in a hospital not equipped for me and things were going to be tragic. Thankfully I made it where I needed to be in another state. Baby making is crazy. I wish you the best and I hope all is well for you! ♥️

@xchas Thank you so much for sharing! I've had some sharp pain in the bottom of my vagina...it's been constant. I had it for two days then it subsided. Now two days later, I have the pain again. I'm not bleeding or discharge. The baby is moving fine. I have an appointment tomorrow at 12. I'm just trying to listen to my body and take it easy.

@noturprops i had insane cramps for 2 days and then I started bleeding with heavy mucus. I convinced myself it was braxton hicks but when I did some googling it said it wasn't supposed to hurt that bad so I broke down and finally went to the hospital. I was in active pre labor already dialated 5cm and 80% effaced. Luckily I've maintained that so far with medical assistance but that is all done now and its up to the baby and my body what happens next 😨

@xchas, I hope he keeps growing! My daughter was 3lb 6oz at 34 weeks. She's now a thriving 14 month old. If he comes early; once you both go home, the hospital should set the baby up with a visiting nurse.

@xchas If you don't mind me asking, what happened or symptoms were you having that made you go in to the hospital?

@gracelynnsmama oh my thats scary stuff. Luckily my husband doesn't have to work for a while now but he had an important appointment that I encouraged him to go to because I'm stable for now. This is my very first and absolute last baby so im sure these are natural feelings lol I just need to hold my shit together till we are really doing this I just know it's imminent and scary. The last weight they guessed was 2lbs 14oz so just under 3lbs. I got all the shots for his lungs to develop and his heart rate is perfect so thats a little relief on me. Im excited for him to be here I just wasnt expecting so soon 😬 this kid is going to be a handful hahahaha

Breathe mama! I know you are scared. I've been there. If things start to progress; call him and he can start heading to you.
I had to do this when I was in the hospital with our first. He's a truck driver so he's 2-3 hours away sometimes and then has to get back to his car. At least the car was 10 minutes from the hospital I was at. I have my c section tomorrow for our second. Today, I feel somewhat fine knowing he's delivering locally even though the hospital is 45 minutes away. At times he's literally around the corner from our house 😂
I've had contractions on and off last week. But since Friday night I've been ok. Friday he called out to take me to my ob appt. and now I can't drive since I see stars on and off.
Do they have an estimated weight where you're 29 weeks?

It will be okay momma. Be strong
