Need advice! (Long post)
So this is my second pregnancy. Yesterday, I was having contraction (not braxton hicks) every 10 minutes. I went into my OB office and they ran a bunch of tests and determined that the contractions were from a mild yeast infection. They also said my cervix is soft but still long. They sent me home and told me, if I had any bleeding or started to get stronger contractions to come back. Well I'm still having the contractions today and I can't lift anything without feeling like my pubic bone is gonna break. I was at the store earlier and had to pee, so I went to the bathroom and when I wiped, there was pink blood. Not much but enough for me to panic. I haven't felt much movement from my son today and with the cramps still coming, I decided to call my on call doctor. She told me that the pink spotting can be normal with the medicine they gave me for the yeast infection. She wants me to come to L&D tonight if I don't get 5 movements in an hour. Its been an hour and I've had 4 separate movements and that's been the most I've felt all day considering I had only felt him once before I started kick counting. I'm not sure if I should worry or not. I don't know when to worry anymore honestly. Mommy instincts say that something is wrong. I'm worried that my instincts are wrong now though. I'm having contractions, pain, I've had nausea and headaches along with spotting and not much movement from my usually very active son. I don't think they're taking me seriously, which is a big complaint with my doctors office from other patients. I'm only 24 weeks and 5 days. I'm so angry and worried. I feel like I'm over reacting but then again I don't. This is my second pregnancy, and this never happened with my first. How would you ladies feel?
