Am I in labor? 32 Weeks

Question

I have been having what I think are Braxton hicks all day because they are not painful. I am however having tightening every 2-3 minutes. Any suggestions?

Answer

I just had something like this last week at 34 weeks. I went in and was monitored and regular timed contractions were confirmed over the course of a few house so they gave me procardia to stop them. It’s best to air on the side of caution than gamble with a preterm baby

Answer

It could be something, it could be nothing. I would call your OB line at a minimum and see what they recommend. I’m personally pretty cautious and would just go in.

Answer

If they are not painful I would say they are just Braxton hicks. It doesn't hurt to call and ask though. I had Braxton hicks a lot in my 3rd trimester with all 3 of my full term pregnancies.
