To go to L&D or not?

posted 24th Nov
For the past 3-4 days, I've been in excruciating pain. Under my tummy, my pubic area, and my inner thighs feel like they've been trampled by a stampede of cows. I understand pressure and loosened pelvis....

But this pain is UNBEARABLE. It's not as bad in the morning after I've slept and rested. But as the day goes on, the pain makes me cry....and I rarely cry. I laid in bed last night feeling period cramps times 100, but it was only in my cervix. I go to turn in bed and I feel like my pelvis is about to split open!

Also, he isn't moving as much. Usually he's active all day. I can feel hiccups, kicks, turns, etc. But now.....I can feel movement every once in a while and a few kicks or punches here and there.

Should I go to L&D or wait until my doctors appointment on Tuesday?

Do a kick count. If he doesn't pass, go in. It doesn't matter how far along you are, once you get to the stage where you can count them, you should be able to do so until delivery. Rolls and hiccups don't count either.

I would've already called, the decrease in movement would scare me..

I felt this pain for over a month before my kids were born. It was horribly uncomfortable, and yes... brought me almost to tears at some points... but it was only ever the pain of them dropping. Feels like they are going to fall out... no?

Pretty much!! I have to stop myself from walking around too much during the day because I know by the time evening gets here...I'm going to regret it.

That is what I had, and I was in early labor.
I was 0 cm one day and started the pains four days later, went in two days after that and I was 3 cm.

I would at least call, my doctor wanted to do a NST and and U/s. My BP was high and my water broke partially so they kept me.

This is what I was thinking, I just FEEL like I'm thinning or dilating or something. The pain can't be for nothing.
