Should I go to Labor and Delivery???

Question

I'm having bad cramping in my lower abdomen and it circles around to my back. It's honestly painful and I'm trying to sleep since it's middle of the night but I can't. Maybe it's baby time?

Answer

That seems pretty consistent. 😊 if you're unsure you can always give them a call, but this may be it especially if you're getting really uncomfortable.

Answer

Looks like labour! Call l&d, they may want you to wait until they're a bit closer together

Answer

I say go ahead and call! I just left L&D I've been contracting every 2-3 minutes and they last a minute long! 😳😩 it's been going on since 8 this morning and it is now 8pm. My dr sent me home because cervix wasn't changing I was just having regular contractions. They gave me iV fluids to see if there were a change and nope! So I'm 3 cm still contracting regularly and all they told me to do was try to rest and hopefully it will cause my cervix to change. I'm 38 +2 weeks and they wouldn't induce me! I'm praying this little boy makes his grand appearance this weekend! Good luck love!

Answer

5-1-1 rule. 5 minutes or less, lasting a minute long or more, and for an hour or longer. How far along are you?
