Never thought I would make one of these post's but here goes

I am currently 35 weeks and a few days and have several pre-term labor episodes they are no longer going to stop my labor for nothing is working. With my son I never felt any of these things I just contracted for ever then eventually my water broke and I went in.

This time however for the last day (my water has not broken) I have been having the menstrual like cramps, dull back aches, increased discharge, loosing little chunks of my mucus plug (no blood), and have been continuing to contract every two minutes.(this has been like this sense the last time they stopped my labor) My doctor said to really not go in until my water breaks but I am just sure if I should go in and just be checked out even though they will not stop my labor at this point?

What would you guys do? Could I be dilating more and my water just didn’t break? BTW Baby is moving and passing all his kick counts so I know he is ok.

My waters had to be broken manually at 6cm so yeah its entirely possible, in fact i dont know that many people whose waters went naturally,I would phone L&D and see what they say hon

Honestly, I'd go get checked because even if they won't stop labor, you're going to end up having a munchkin and contractions are more of an indicator than water breakage, if I'm not mistaken.

Some peoples waters dont break until the baby gets pushed out. Its rare but some babies are born still inside of the sac. If you are concerned I would go get checked out for peace of mind

My water isn't break till 91/2 cm's on its own so ya I would go in

Got a hold of the on call doctor and he wants me to come in wish me luck ladies I am hoping he will stay in there a few more days atleast....

Good luck, Im glad you phoned

Good luck! Hope all goes well and he stays put!

Crossing my fingers for you and your little one. I'm hoping he/she can stay in for as long as possible.

Well I just got home from L&D even though they said they were not going to stop my labor they decided that they would tonight in hopes I can make it till 36 weeks. I am 100% effaced and 1 and 1/2 centimeters dilated I was a fingertip dilated when I arrived but they managed to get my contractions spaced out some and toned down but not completely stopped. So crossing my fingers I go at least 36 weeks but not very sure it will happen....
