    Labour?
    Hi, I'm 34weeks and are 3 cm dialted and have lost mucus plug, my partner felt my cervix and he can put his finger in half way what does that mean? And today I've been having high abdominal cramps and a lot of white sticky mucus and smells bit like bleech.. am I in labour? My dr didn't seemed to fussed but I need advice...

    First I ask that you PLEASE not let your partner check your cervix. This is a recipe for disaster since he has not been trained to know what a cervix feels like as well as the possibility of putting you into early labor.

    How often are you having the "cramps?" Can you explain how they feel please?

    The cramps come and go every 25 to 30 min... and they are a period type cramp but a lot worse mixed with a lot of pressure in bum and vagina, when I go to pee or other feels like a lot of pressure on vagina like I'm pushing my bubz..

    It's still a little early for him to come, but sometimes those things can't be stopped.

    Are the "cramps" regular? Try taking a warm bath, some paracetamol and see if that lessens the cramps. If not, I suggest you go to your L&D department to be checked out.

    Can you please explain why you did not find my answer helpful?

    I hope you did not expect a diagnosis because that is impossible over the internet.
