Last Sunday I went in with contractions that wouldn't stop. They gave me 2 bags of fluids and 2 shots of something that finally made them space back out. I have been having them all week but today they got really close together. I go to the hospital to get checked out and they say that even though I am having contractions that are close together I wasn't dilated and I was closed so they couldn't do anything. I have to be in active labor for them to do something. I have to have a c-section but they won't do anything unless I am dilated.
Re: Need advice - Venting
I highly recommend communicating this with your OB and having him/her transfer a copy of your file to labour and delivery so that when/if you go back in the same situation, they can review your file and are aware of your situation.
Unfortunately, if your OB has not shared this information with them, they have no way of knowing if you are telling the truth and, unfortunately, there are quite a few people out there who are willing to tell lies or stretch the truth when they are getting close to their due date and, frankly, just want the baby out.
