Doctor Said Be Careful Pre-term Labor :( !
Posted: 02-18-05 09:38am

before I begin, I want to thank all you guys for your help.

My next doctors appointment is about 1w4d from now, 3/1/2005, I will be about 30w0d.

Currently, I am roughly (being that my due date is not exact) 28wd3d ( or + 3 - 9 days). I went to my doctor and I told him about the cramps and the discomfort, so I took the glucose and then he did a cervical exam. He told me I was having contractions???. So im thinking they are braxton hicks, then as I was leaving. He checked on my paper. Patient pregnancy history "pre-term labor". He told me to be very careful with anything I do and if the contractions or pain are to get worse call him.

Guys I am doing everything so slowly right now I want to make it at least past .. March 15th, 2005.

Yeah def take it easy. He didn't put you on bedrest? Were you leaking amniotic fluid?

no fluids, but vaginal discharge. When it comes to fluids, I have the urge to pee, and I feel like it's coming, but it never ever comes out .. Or maybe it does, but in tiny small portions where I haven't noticed ...

hey hun just take it easy. Try resting as much as possible and lay on your saide switching atleast every 30min to 1hr. It helps keep your blood flow. Also drink plenty of fluids. Your baby/body replinishes your fluids every 3 hrs. This will slao help with the contractions. Did your doc. Say anything about dialation??. If not the you are okay for now. Good luck hun I have been through all of this
