It'll be ok... I had my second daughter at 36 weeks, and she was ok.. they gave me steroids to mature her lungs, we spent the normal stay.

First of all, get checked for a UTI.
That can cause cramping, back pain, nausea & frequent urination.
In the mean time, chug water/cranberry juice.

If it's not a UTI, and is simply pregnancy kicking your ass, just relax. I was 1cm and 50% effaced from 32 weeks forward. All three of my kids sat very low. It didn't mean ANYTHING at all. You can stay a couple cm dilated for months. Just relax.

they havent said anything about possibly going early. everyone sees to think im going to have him this week. i cant wait for him to get here

I stayed dilated for MONTHS before my son was born the morning before his DD. lol. There is nothing to be scared of. You will not go early. Just rest up and relax. Get checked for the UTI and get meds for that because that can cause problems if you dont.

never had one i go back in wed for a growth ultrasound they are packed right now for appointments

If you call tomorrow ask them to write you a script for a UTI med. Since that is what you have. Dont wait for a week. Get it now.

ugh its one thing after another...

How do u know she has a UTI? OP u need to ask ur doctor about a uti but i am 36wks 4dys and having the same stuff for a week now, add in the last 2days ive been having begining labor contractions. U may not go into labor for a few more weeks. Sit down put ur feet up, take a relaxing bath, and try to get some sleep. Our babies will be here soon enough!

is there anything i can do about the back pain? at least to make me a lil more comfortable. tylanol showers and baths dont help

I was at station 0 and dilated to 3 at 36 weeks. I had him the day before his due date. no worries momma!

I have pretty much just learned to live with the back pain but putting a pillow between your legs while laying on your side seems to take some pressure off.
