I get a contraction every time I stand up or change positions. I'm 30w6d second time around and I don't remember this happening with the first pregnancy. I was put on bedrest at 33 weeks and had my first baby at 35 weeks. So naturally every little thing has had me concerned this time around. When I asked the dr about it all they say is no more than five contractions in an hour. (What if I get up five times in an hour...) I am wondering if I should request that the dr check my cervix (I was dilated 3cm at 33 weeks last pregnancy) or if I should just suck it up and quit being paranoid. Anyone else having the same contractions when they move around?
Re: I get a contraction every time I get up...
I would say that, given your history, getting checked out isn't necessarily a bad idea. My ob keeps a close eye on me, since withmy first two pregnancies I began dialating at about 32 weeks.
A lot to be said for peace of mind.
