It’s me again y’all😅 *UPDATE*

Cassidy

I’m almost 30 weeks. I went into preterm labor at 28 weeks but they were able to stop the contractions. Now I’m having them again. I’ve had 4 so far and they’re anywhere from 5-12 minutes apart. How many should I have before I go back to the hospital??

Update: I went to labor and delivery and it turns out I was contracting consistently again.. every 5-6 minutes.. but they didn’t even keep me a full hour and did nothing to stop the contractions. They didn’t give me an IV or the shots to stop labor or anything. Literally all they did was check me (I’m still 0% effaced and not dilated at all) and monitor me for like 45 minutes (where they confirmed I was contracting every 5-6 minutes) and made me drink two little cups of water and then sent me home. They said that if they got more intense or closer together to come back. I just really thought that at only 30 weeks (especially since I delivered my first baby at 32 weeks and had a pretty painless labor) they’d be a lot more concerned with me contracting regularly at all. Especially since I feel it in my back too and they definitely hurt. Am I supposed to feel annoyed and concerned about them saying it was no big deal or should I be getting relief from their complete and utter nonchalance about the situation??😅😅
