contractions before c-section...what do I do? help.

Question

Having regular contractions. Not painful just really tight and crampy. I know typically you wait an hour but since I'm having a repeat c-section, I'm worried about the risk of uterine rupture. Kinda worried about what to do. What do you think?

Answer

Call your ob. They may want you to come in

Answer

I don't know your history but from the research I've done the risk of uterine rupture is just 1% I'm trying for a VBAC so I've been reading up on it. Being induced makes it a little risky because the contractions come on quicker and stronger but as far as natural labor there's a 75% chance or success. But if you are set on a c-section I'd definitely call your Dr to be on the safe side.

Answer

My doctor told me that even wth trying a vbac they minute I go into labor they want me at the hostpital. I would call and see what they tell you
