Avatar f tn Being induced in 8 days! I'm so excited and nervous. Will it hurt? How soon will I feel the contractions? I'm a ftm so I have so many questions! I heard contractions are stronger when you're induced. Can't wait to meet my son!
Avatar f tn much protein in my urine and am swollen like a balloon! AND! I have reached 200lbs in a week and a half, I gained 5lbs. My nurse was a.little worried ESP since I keep having contractions. So, he comes in at 2 on Fridays so I am hitting up my brother and sisters graduation and then heading over there! Hoping for a baby tomorrow!!!!
Avatar f tn I'm due next week too and I have back pain and contractions as well but they don't feel that painful.
Avatar f tn But before that, I drink 8 oz in the morning. After lunch I fill the cup again and work on it in the afternoon. Then I have another 8 oz glass before bed. Most of the time I make it close to the 64 oz.
Avatar f tn I have 8 days left and it seems unreal... Do contractions just suddenly hit or do they gradually come on?

Avatar f tn I'll be 33 weeks on Wednesday I didn't think they were contractions there not spaced evenly very random does it mean he might be coming sooner than expected I had an appt today (he's 4lbs 10oz) but forgot to talk to him about them because we went straight to the ultrasound room but I'll pay more attention to how frequent they're coming
Avatar f tn I was 40 weeks 5days scheduled for induction for 8/9 . I had been dilated at 2 since 37 weeks one fail membrain sweep at the end and no baby on my due date doctor decided to induce. On Saturday morning i started to get cantractions i asked my husband to fill the tube so i could relax and if they wasn't the real thing they would go away. After a while my contractions were every 8 minutes and didn't go away with the bath.
889551 tn?1416184483 I was supposed to have my appt today, but they rescheduled it to tomorrow because my midwife called in this morning. I keep having contractions that will stay frequent for a few hours and then seemingly go away for an hour or two, and then start back up. My back is literally killing me when I'm having contractions. It feels like hardcore af cramps that at times go around to the front and all the way down into my pelvis.
Avatar f tn And he reiterated to use the 5 1 1 rule. Contractions 5 minutes apart that last for 1 minute for at least 1 hour straight. Or if water breaks come in immediately.
Avatar f tn re admitted by 10pm, by which point the contractions were getting pretty intense. Two hours later I was still 2cm dilated and in a ton of pain. I was originally going to have a natural birth, but with 8cm to go and the very, very strong contractions brought about by my water breaking, I decided to get the epidural. It was a good choice! Two hours later I was 10cm dilated and ready to push. I was amazed at how quickly it progressed!
1712422 tn?1443337501 So far have had 8 contractions in the last 50 minutes…when they stop I still feel like I'm cramping, should I go in to get monitored or wait it out to see if they get worse?
2131661 tn?1340229152 Sometimes going a week past your due date is best cause the baby gets loads more of everything near the end. Also, if you start to have any complications or are high risk they will induce you. I know the feeling of wanting that baby out, especially so you can see him/her. The longer you go, the better for better. But there isa tea you can buy called Raspberry Leaf Tea. Not sure what brand but my friends had luck with that. You sure you don't want to do castor oil?
Avatar f tn 30-31.
Avatar n tn I have had consistent abdominal pain for 2 weeks now. Also I have lost my mucus plug. I am in back labor with contractions every 8 minutes in my lower back. Lastly I have had watery loose stool (tmi sorry). Does this mean labor is near? Could I have baby in next 24 hours?
Avatar f tn You know whats funny thou, that we had similar experiences. Besides being in labour lol i was 6cm dilated and contractions went away completly for alot of my (labour time) so they put me on pitocin to start contractions again. I was at a complet 10 100% eff. But no contractions.
Avatar f tn I'm super annoyed that I've gained 9lbs in 2 weeks. But making progress, now 2cm 70%effaced and baby at -1 station. My doctor was just glad I survived another week lol. This has been a hectic process every since 22 weeks with preterm contractions so at this rate I'm grateful for each week I complete. I had my first preterm so I'm just interested to see how long this little guy will cook beige he decides to make his entrance.
Avatar f tn & nothing no dilation no nothing but I have gained 8 pounds in 2 weeks wth now im jus home sad lol im ready to have this baby my doctor just laughs at me & says better luck next week lol
8408613 tn?1414894692 Well I went for a 30 minute walk then picked up my boyfriend from work and was having contractions every 7 to 8 minutes. Well when I got home my contractions were every 5 minutes. I called my doctor and they told me to go to the hospital. Well I'm here in labor and delivery just got the epidural (which is a life saver) and having contractions every 2 minutes. Doctor should be in soon to break my water!! Finally gonna meet my baby boy. His due date was 11/18/2014!

Avatar f tn Ok. So last night I started having contractions and my fiancee was timing them they were about 5-6 minutes apart... well after about 2 hours they just stopped... n now I feel them every once in a while but there's no regular patern.. my due date is april 8th and last week when I went to potty I saw my mucus plug... could baby be about ready to come? What do u guys think I should do????
Avatar f tn I was having contractions 7-8 minutes apart for 3 hours and then they started getting further apart. Later that evening they started again. I went to the hospital and they told me I was only 2-3 dilated and the contractions began to taper off and sent me home. I got my hopes up.
Avatar f tn I am 36 weeks and 5 days. I have had about 8 contractions an hour for the past 2 hours. What can I do to help my contractions get closer together?
9263335 tn?1403463032 I've been having diahrrea all day & bh contractions every now & then. :/ Ftm & I really don't know how to time my contractions & I don't know what's causing me to run to the restroom so often. Please help.
303706 tn?1296876149 Well as many of you know I'm am getting ready to face labor (hahaha...). I was almost 2cm dilated the other day, I go back next Tuesday. I've been feeling alot of pressure more, and now when I walk I can just FEEL it! I've definitely started to feel some contractions but they're still very far apart, I still dont' know whether it's the real ones or BH because they still HURT LIKE HELL lol! I have my diaper bag packed and ready to go just in case!
2032869 tn?1333989114 Hi everyone I'm 38 weeks 5 days. I've been experiencing contractions between 6-8 minutes. Feel them in my back and my stomach. I don't believe I passed my mucus plug unless I missed it and no bloody show either. This is my second baby. The contractions are feeling a bit strong like bad cramps then what I usually get from BH contractions. I am trying to wait as long as I can I want to avoid false alarms. I had 2 with my first son and 3rd time was the charm.
Avatar f tn I'm only 22 weeks but my cousin is 31 weeks and is in the hospital with contractions 4 mins apart. Has anyone gone into labor this early or know someone that has? What are the risks being so early and what are her chances of a healthy baby?
