If this has to do with your pregnancy,go straight to the hospital.

Don't wait for another post.

Go now!

What and where exactly is the pain?

With my first I had constant pain. It felt like I had a broken rib and the baby was pushing on my bladder along with everything else. I couldn't even get comfortable laying down.

It may be nothing or it may be something.
If you explain the exact pain and where it is maybe we can have a better idea.

I second what Red said

Nohelp, she has a history of lower abdomen pain.

This can give you some background:

Oh she should go I would say.
Wonder why her dr hasn't checked into this better by now and given her some answers on it.

Hey everyone,
My doctor was in tonight,
They sent me home when
They got me hydrated, I have dailated
To 2 cms now. They gave me demerol
Though the I've, I haven't felt anything since
About 4 pm today and it's one in the morning now, I'm going to try to get in tomorrow with my ob, I was contracting a little bit, I don't understand what's going on. It's hard to get answers from a doctor any advice, how far can I dailate with out my water breaking? I'm only 32 weeks my son can't be born and be healthy, he is moving just where I'm not feeling it my blood pressure is staying up I have gotten where I don't want to eat or drink because I will get sick,

This morning I woke up with a discharge that was clear and yellowish.
What could that be?

Worried

Oh wow, I hope everything turns out for the best. Until then try to rest and relax, And obviously call your doctor ASAP if anything feels wrong.

Good luck.

redhed35 · Sep 21, 2009, 12:37 AM

Hey,glad your still hanging in there,I'm afraid I have no information that could help you,apart from rest as much as you can.

Ill lend you my support though.

32 weeks is good,your both getting there,tell that baby to hang on for another bit.

Cat1864 · Sep 21, 2009, 05:50 AM

You need to talk to your doctor or his nurses as soon as possible. If you have to demand the answers your questions. Your health and Jr's depend on those answers.

I hope everything goes well.

Is the discharge constant? Do your panties stay wet enough to have to wear a pad?

This could be that the baby just kicked your bladder. Happens a lot.

Dehydration can cause premature labor. It is important that you drink up to a gallon of water per day and DO NOT chew ice. Chewing ice can actually cause dehydration.

brittanymommy08 · Sep 21, 2009, 06:18 AM

Yeah, I have to wear something with my panties, and the discharge is a lot at one time, but different times when I go to the bathroom, I'm trying to drik plenty of fuilds everything makes me sick, even water to a point.

J_9 · Sep 21, 2009, 06:34 AM

Brittany, do you STAY wet?

brittanymommy08 · Sep 21, 2009, 06:51 AM

Yeah,
I got a question what's the difference in inner and outer cervix?

J_9 · Sep 21, 2009, 06:53 AM

The outer portion of the cervix is what I can feel closest to the vaginal canal when I do a vaginal exam. The inner portion of the cervix is past that and inside closer to the uterus.

Think of it this way. Take a bottle for example. The outermost rim of the bottle is the outer portion. When you poke your finger through the bottle and feel the rim inside the bottle, that is the inner portion.

brittanymommy08 · Sep 21, 2009, 06:57 AM

When they say I have dailated 2 cm. and that's it. It meaning both. Right? At one time they were saying I dailated 1 cm outer and finger tip inner now they are just saying I'm 2 cm.

Yeah, they are staying wet

J_9 · Sep 21, 2009, 07:06 AM

2cm is 2 cm. Let me see if I can explain it better. When you first become pregnant your cervix is closed. There is no opening that we can feel, it's porous so that the sperm can get in.

Now, when you get closer to labor your cervix starts to open. The opening you have is 2cm around. When I feel a cervix of 2cm, it's like sticking 2 fingertips in the hole in the cervix. As the cervix dilates even further I can get more fingertips in, so to speak, or I have to stretch my fingers to feel the rim of the cervix.

2cm is not uncommon for a second or third pregnancy at your stage of pregnancy. It doesn't mean you are in labor, just getting ready for labor. Active labor starts at approx 4cm dilation.

If you are staying wet and have to change your panties constantly, then you need to go to the hospital for a nitrazine or ferning test to see if your water has broken. However, since it's Monday, you can call your doctor's office to see what they want to do.
