Can you sense if your going to go into premature labour?

Question

I’m 27 weeks nearly 28 I have anxiety so it could be that but i feel like I’m going to go into labour really early ! I keep getting constant pelvic pressure and braxton hicks and my nipples hurt constantly especially if I hear a baby cry and my hormones and emotions are through the roof . It’s my first pregnancy as well so this could be me being dramatic as well. Has anyone else felt they were going into early labour and then actually did?

Answer

I think what you're feeling is normal. A lot of times early Braxton Hicks happen because the uterus isn't hydrated enough. Drink tons of water every day and it should help with that. If you're going into preterm labor you'd have actual contractions and be in a lot of pain. Call your OB anytime you're worried or if it's past business hours the hospital L&D always has a phone nurse and a doctor you can speak to.

Answer

Sounds like you’re dehydrated. Water alone won’t cut it, drink an electrolyte packet daily too. The rest of it is completely normal and totally gets worse. 😔 I also struggle with anxiety. My midwife had me buy “rescue remedy” tincture off of Amazon for stress relief. It helps take the edge off. I’ve tried CBD too but rescue remedy works better and WAYY cheaper.

Answer

Tell your OB what’s going on! I was having the same things going on, they sent me to the hospital for a stress test and I found out I was having contractions. I went into preterm labor and spent 2 days in hospital. I’m now on bed rest (I’ll be 32 weeks tomorrow) It’s better to be safe so just speak with your doctor ☺️
