I went into preterm labor at 34+3 weeks had steroid shots and shots to stop labor. My OB also prescribed two different medications to stop contractions (taken every 8 hours) well I ran out of pills two days ago and today has been awful. I'm 36+3 days now and I'm already 1cm dilated and 30% effaced. I've had Braxton hicks all day. Not painful just annoying and uncomfortable. Now I'm laying in bed still having contractions about 10 minutes apart and they have begun to hurt. Pain starts in my back like period pains and radiate to my bikini area and I have a lot of pressure in my vagina and bum. Any Advice?
