I am going to be 33 weeks tomorrow, 2 weeks ago from tomorrow i went into preterm labor, dilated 1 cm 50% thinned out. They stopped my labor with 4 bags of magnesium, and released me and sent me home. Last night i started gettting some really sharp pains and kicks from the baby, but i know the difference from her kicking and the sharp pain, her kicking feels like popcorn, and the sharp pain always bends me over. The doctor told me i could check myself to check my cervix myself... well i did, and i have a yellow/white discharge that smell like babys milk in a way.. im also having back pain and cramps again.. same symptoms i was having the last time i went into labor, i dont want to make a hospital check if i dont need to but does it sound like im going back into premature labor again?

I would go back into be sure & I am not an ER person. I didn't go right the hospital when I was in preterm labor (35 weeks 6 days, so not that early) by the time I got there it was so dialted that if they has stopped the labor I would be at a risk for infection. If ds had complications from being early I would have really blamed myself.

None of us are MDs who can medical check you or offer advice. If you think that you may be in labor, then at this gestation you should go in. But I'm pretty sure that you know that already.

Idk... I don't think any of us would really know... But I do know this, any cramping and pains especially in third trimester are a reason to see a doc... So, maybe try er.. Or call dr.

Coming from a pregnant mom who is TERRIFIED of preterm labor but also HATES going to the hospital just to be sent home, instead of going right in call ur Dr's office and speak with a nurse to see what they think you should do. Better safe than sorry I guess (:

Thank you all 5 months ago I gave birth to my little tot at 4 lbs 14 ozs. It was so scary and it was 3 weeks after I posted this! My little girl is healthy as can be but I did have trouble with labor for a month I had an infection in my placenta and neither the dr or er told me! I almost lost my daughter due to labor shakes bc I was shaking like something awful! But thanks for the advice!
