I’ve been having contractions all day. Haven’t really timed them but now I’m feeling so nauseous I can’t sleep and I have horrible diarrhea. I’m due March 20th but baby is measuring a week ahead so that puts me at 37 weeks. I’ve already been to labor and delivery because of contractions and had to get a shot to stop them. I lost my mucus plug like a week ago. I know it can grow back but could I be possibly going into labor soon?
The only reason I think I could be a little farther a long then I think is because the “period” I had was very light and I mean spotting light and only 2-3 days. Could have very well been implantation bleeding but my dr went with it being my last “period”. The baby has measured “ahead” my whole pregnancy. 🤷🏼♀️
@hollieletcher01, did you by chance have an early ultrasound? Those are the most accurate. But a week won’t truly make much difference other than maybe they will come sooner 😊 🤞
@whereswaldo, yeah girl I did. He has always measured a week “bigger” but for some reason they went by my last “period” even though I told them how it was 🤷🏼♀️ I’m just praying that I go into labor on my own because I do NOT want to be induced. I don’t know exactly when I conceived with this baby like I did with my first. This sweet boy wasn’t planned. I had to take clomid to get pregnant with my first baby and use opks and knew exactly when I ovulated and dates of everything.
It could mean it’s near or it could be your body prepping. I contracted for a solid month with my oldest before I finally went into active labor. Also just because you are measuring ahead doesn’t mean gestational wise the baby is ahead. Just means the baby is a little larger, not older. 😊 Hang in there ❤️
