Early labor?

Sarah • Proud mommy of three beautiful children expecting my fourth

This might be TMI but is diahrrea, loss of appetite, not gaining weight, and more frequent Braxton Hicks contractions a sign that labor is soon? I'm only 31 weeks and I don't want to have my baby early this time.

Sarah I'm having the exact same thing! This is my fear too. I hope your pregnancy continues to go okay. I told my OB this recently and he basically said to just stay "in tune" with my body. Keep us updated. Are you on any progesterone injections?

No I can't afford it and I don't get any help from bd. He's actually leaving state and wants to take our older son who's 11 with him. My doctor said it's stress related but also pay attention to any other signs and go in if I need to.

Never be afraid to call your OB and ask! Are you timing those BH contractions? Are you getting more than 5 or 6 in an hour? If yes, call your OB. I promise promise promise your Ob or her nurse will be very happy to calm any fears you have or advise you to come in and be checked. They would so much rather you come in, get checked, and be totally fine... than you waiting too long and then be in labor that can’t be stopped.
