so been told I'm in pre labour, been having irregular contractions for over 3 days, my midwife says it's back labour, The babies head is positioned in the birth position but been told to just wait till the contractions are regular or my waters break, I've noticed a few times a lot of discharge which is clear and stitcky, but now I've had some which is unsticky, just want to know whether your waters can break slowly or anything along them lines and whether anybody can estimate how far I am off official labour, thanks
Re: ❔❓❔Pre labour, confused❔❓❔
We are not doctors. We are internet people........... It's hard to explain that over and over to people who NEVER post and just show up.......
If I could estimate how far you are in labor I would be one hell of a psychic through a computer. You DID in fact ask someone to tell you an estimate of how far in labor you are. Those were your exact words.
Yes. Your waters can trickle out slowly.
If you can't walk and talk through your contractions because of the pain, then that's when you'll be able to tell your in labor.
We have delivery stories in almost every thread and weekly appt threads for sharing dilation and effacement and progress........... Look there.
Second, the May board is full of labor and delivery stories as well if you need more anecdotes. We have just started June. Most of us haven't popped yet.
Finally, if you are worried, ask your doctor. We can't diagnose you or tell you about your specific medical situation. To do so is dangerous.
Her first pic was nothing like the one she has now......... Drastically different appearance..........
Ok I'm done with this thread.
If your referring to mine then the other one was 90% of my bump
I've tagged you in three threads where you can find info.
I went into labor 10 days early, with no symptoms or forewarning. So truly no, I would say it's not possible for us to predict labor. Good luck and I hope you are feeling better soon!
Good luck, @NaomiFalcon ! You'll find what you need around the board.
Now, back to my insomnia!
Edited: I had a much more thoughtful reply, but then realized @jillholt80 is the chick who personally attacked me two weeks ago, both on the board and through my inbox. And she said she wasn't coming back. Now here she is calling us bitches and stupid.
Moderators, a little help please? @bumpcaitlin @BumpTara ?
This was the most entertaining thing I've read in a long time.
