Help!
Ok, so I turned 37weeks on Friday (yesterday) , and this is my second pregnancy. With my first I was induced at 38 due to HBP and 3x the normal amount of protein in the urine…
With my first I don’t recall feeling the Braxton Hicks and this time around, for the past week or so I have been feeling them. Even the lower back pain.. I recall that with my son (while in labor) I felt the contractions on my lower back.
I feel my stomach get uncomfortably tight and even rise plus the back pain… I’ve been having a lot of discharge lately too sol thinking I’m just getting closer to meeting her?
I’m scared. It’s like I don’t know what to expect… I don’t recall this much discharge with my son around this time. Again, I was induced and therefore my water was ruptured etc.. I was even given meds to start the contractions since I wouldn’t dilate on my own so this time around it’s all new to me. I know labor is near but I don’t even know as to counting the contractions and what the mucus plug is/looks like or water breaking on my own.. whether to expect a small amount or a lot? No idea.
Any advice???
