I will
I went into pre-term at 28 weeks and at 30+6 xx
should be all good after then

I've been in pre-term labour twice.
First time at 28/29 weeks: I had strong tightenings and back ache and also with a lot of pressure in my bum but LO has never been head down. I went in and was hooked up to the monitor and the midwife said IF this is labour do not worry they will not let you labour now. Labour got stopped and things sorted themselves out.
I then went into pre-term labour at 30+6. I thought my waters had leaked so went in. There was a three hour weight in triage and I felt myself getting wetter. I went to check my pad and there was brown spotting. I wiped and the tp came away brown. I went and showed the midwife and she put through a phone call to labour and delivary suiete and they transffered me there as they thought it was mec. I'd been having tightnings and backache all day prior to this. Thought it was just braxton hicks.
I was given steriods in the bum cheek and I'm not gunna lie those shots hurt. I was also given pethadine and anti-sickness to. And that really hurts! I was given two red tablets called nidedipine and then another 2 an hour later ( according to my notes) they had to stop givng me the tablets as blood pressure became unstable at 60/40.
They said if my contractions did not stop or got longer and harder I started dilating or anything came up on the scan I would be going for an emergancy c-section. I was told to cut down on solid intake but keep fluids up. They even went as far to do my consent form and risk assesment for my c-section. There in my notes. Luckily LO is still cooking and I'm 32 weeks today
I will not lie to you here but do not want to scare you. For me pre-term labour has been the scariest experiance of my life. Hearing the words contractions steroids sleepy baby baby in distress menconium c-section scbu and peadiatrition is something you never want to hear.
Going for a tour of the scbu and being talked to be surgeons and a neo-natal intensive care specilist is something I wish no one ever has to go through. I know they have to do it "just incase" but its still terryfing.
If pregnancy has taught me anything its to be as in tune with your body and if you go to triage one or a thousand times you can never be to cautious!!

Wow you have been on such a journey already!! I'm so glad your doing well now and your little one is staying put!! I have no reason to think I'm at risk of preterm labour but I'm sure it's a worry of most mummys to be! Xxx
I'll be 36 weeks by Xmas and think I'll feel a lot more relaxed knowing my baby will be strong enough if he is born then. Lots of women seem to have their babies early on here but everyone keeps telling me first baby's always come late lol! Xxx

I cant belive how fast this pregnancy has gone! and if I was pregnant with my son I would be having him in 3 weeks time!
