So I’m a FTM. I go for NSTs and BPPs weekly, usually at least twice a week due to hypertension and now low fluid. I’ll be 36weeks tomorrow. I was also supposed to be induced tomorrow due to low fluid levels but they measured higher with a different tech so she couldn’t justify induction.

She checked my cervix at 34.5 and there was nothing and she checked again at 35.5 and I was 1cm and 50% effaced. I know this essentially means nothing but we also concluded I was having contractions that I thought was baby moving (baby hurts when there is low fluid). Now, I have been having contractions on and off since 3-4 today (it’s 10:30). No big deal. Well, I’m losing parts of my mucus plug (which I also know doesn’t mean anything). My contractions are short and I honestly don’t think anything of them. I also am having off and on back pain. My question is, should I be getting ready to time them and for them to be more intense or can this go on for weeks and weeks?
