If you think you are constipated or have fibroid pain call doctor

iristony · May 2010

I have just returned home after almost 4 weeks in hospital. For around 4 days I kept feeling pain and pressure and thought I may be constipated even though I was going to the bathroom (not as much as usual though). On the 4th day it got worst and I started bleeding and went to L&D and they told me it was fibroid pain and sent me home. Next morning I started having contractions and started to go into premature labor. I did not realize they were contractions until they were 3 minutes apart- so early and doubted myself that I was having contractions. When I got back to L&D we learned that the contractions thinned out my cervix and I was already dilating. Thanks to miracle drugs and hospitalized bedrest, I am now home and just praying baby keeps cooking for another 8-plus weeks.

Wow, I'm glad you caught that before you went into full active labor! Rest up for the next couple of weeks. GL!

Glad the hospital was able to keep the baby in there. Hope your LO stays put.
