Period like cramps... 33 weeks and now in hospital (update pg 3)

[Duejan2012]

Thank you everyone...

The cramps were like period cramps, not getting worst it better with lying down or walking around. Also my bump keeps getting hard and tight in braxton hicks.

They gave me an internal and my cervix was closed and long which is good. However the swab came back positive for a hormone released in early labour. So I had a steroid injection and now waiting for another tomorrow...

Oh hun i just want to say i hope that your LO stays in longer. Keep your feet up and relax!! I also wanted to know was the test called fetal fibronectin or something like that? I went into L&D when pg with my DD at 33 weeks or so and i to had that test come back positive. Doctor said that when that test comes back positive then it means you will probably go into labor within ohh i cant remember its been about 3 years ago. but it was soon. I was told to relax. I was on restriction not 100% bed rest but restriction lol I ended up having my dd at 40+6. So i really hope that thats the case with you and just wanted to give you alittle reasurance. That these test are not always correct..

They are keeping me in another night

I have a growth scan tomorrow morning as she is looking a little on the small side which I am obviously a little worried about. She was ok at 29 week appointment so not sure what's happened between now and then.

I have another steroid injection this afternoon but not sure what else will be happening today...

Hey Hun, your in the right place they'll keep an eye on you. Hope all goes well tomorow.

I went in with ds at 28 weeks due to bad pain on my left side, they kept me monitored and gave me the steroid injections but never found out why I had the pain.

Lots of your way.x
