Can someone please help me with something?

I really don't wanna upset or anger anyway so I really hope no1 takes this the wrong way I'm generally concerned n don't know who else to ask as my son was born at 39 weeks so I have nothing to compare really anyway here goes...

I'm currently 30 weeks iv already had contractions which they picked up on the monitor a few weeks ago with some bleeding but they never made me dilate so they seemed to be unconcerned...fine

Now this week, my bh have kicked up a notch. Iv lost all my plug, iv now dropped and having quite bad cramps along with lower backache, nothing like my spd its like a crampy ache in my back! I can't shake this feeling that he's trying to make an early entrance and everything now I'm now experience seems to be heading that way, I had all these things going on the week my waters broke with son but everytime I go away up to triage I leave feeling like a right fruit loop that's worrying over nothing but I seriously can't shake this feeling of the baby just appearing really soon! Obviously I want him in there at least another 6/7 weeks so if something is trying to happen shouldn't they be trying to stop it instead of palming me off?

Again I'm sorry if I'm offending any1 but u ladies are the ones that have been here and had ur wee babies early so u will know the signs better than most hence why I'm asking for ur opinion? Can u relate or did this happen with u or else am I just being a total freak??? Xxx

What do they do when you are at triage hun?
Although everyones labours are different, mine(27weeks) was the same as my 40 weeker.

They just put me on the monitor and had a look down there! They said my cervix was still closed but it was soft n low but that was 2 weeks ago! I'm just more concerned because with my ds my water broke then I literally cramped my way to 4/5cm so for all I know that's what's happening! On top of it I only laboured 3hrs so this one will prob be shorter length so its not like il know oh right I'm in labor so I better go up until its to late to stop it :-a

Hopefully they are right and you will carry awhile longer. I do have to say though that this sounds a lot like what I went through. Started with a backache which doctor told me must be a bladder infection (even though I told her it felt like mild labor), she checked my cervix and said it felt closed and strong. Within 24 hrs, my water broke and my LO was born at 23 weeks. Thankfully, she is a strong little fighter and is doing great. Don't let them make you feel silly for your concern... you know when something isn't right and they need to listen to you. Good luck and God bless.

I was having per-term labor and it felt a lot like what you are describing. I was told to stop working ad put on modified bed rest and that slowed things down. I did end up having an emergency c section at 34 weeks but thats cause I developed preeclampsia.

Mainly, you know your body better then any of us or any dr... If you really feel its not right demand to be checked... It's better to find out all is okay and feel like a fool then to wish you'd gone in and wonder, for the rest of your life, if something could have been done.

Thanks ladies! I'm glad its nothing something I'm just imagining in my head and some u experienced the same! The cramps have settled for now although they done that yest and came back full throtal! I have a 4d scan booked for tomoz afternoon so I will go to that an see if they see or pick anything up and if I'm still the same after that I will go back up! I would just rather if it was the beginning of something that they agreed with me and helped me stop it rather than just let it happen! Like any expetant mother I only want what is best for my unborn baby and we all know they longer he's in there the better! Fingers crossed it all works good in the end up but I know he will be fine hopefully at 30 weeks but I'd rather he stayed out another 6 weeks minimum! I couldn't do what u ladies do I'm just not strong enough thank you for all of ur replies and best wishes with all ur little ones xxx
