Labor soon?

Question

I've had preterm labor on and off since 29 weeks, I'm 36 now being induced at 37 due to preeclampsia and pih. The last two weeks I've been having lots of contractions yesterday I had  an episode of 4 minutes apart for 50 minutes then they stopped, today I had them 2 1/2 minutes apart for a half hour then they stopped , then again 4 minutes apart for a bit then they stopped . Feeling period like cramps and bathroom issues .... Can't even sit at the table to eat because I'm
Having painful contractions ( but they will stop) just is hard to sit up. Wondering if I'll even make my induction date? I know nobody will know , just wondering if this sounds like I'm going into labor ?  Or if anyone has had similar experience .

Answer

I'm going through the same thing just as of 430 today two hr ago. They have been coming strong every 5 mins or so. It hurts a bit. The pressure though. It has me off the grid. I've put myself on rest mode with lots of water. The doc said to drink water take two Tylenol and a warm shower to see if they stop.

Ps the kids first day of school is tomorrow. I've spent so much money and time to miss them getting on the bus in the morning. But maybe her sister wants to be here too. I'm 37+ my other two were already here by now. I had them at the start of 37 weeks

Pih? What is that

Answer

It sounds like you're trying to go into labor. I've got the same issue and I've been on bedrest. I'm scared too move too much and bring on active labor.
