    Breastmilk pouring out
    Is it normal at 37 weeks for
    It to be pouring out?
    Is it a sign it getting close to
    That time?


    Here in the last two hours
    I have been having sharp back pains coming
    And going about every ten mintues
    Nothing helping it not even pain meds.
    Could it be contractions?
    I don't want to run to the hosptial.

    Sounds like you're going to be the lucky mom of 3 shortly. You're probably at the hospital right now as I type this in labor.

    Good luck. Pkease come back and let us know the statistics of your new addition.

    Breast milk and labor have very little in common. However, since you are feeling the back pain... time to be on your way to the hospital again.

    You can take Tylenol PM or Benadryl to get some sleep.

    Those are 2 pregnancy approved meds that you can take for sleeping. I give them out like candy at the hospital. LOL

    At least you know that tonight you can take either Tylenol PM or Benadryl.

    You are at the point in your pregnancy where the baby is just gaining weight now. All organs are already formed.

    Well just got from the hosptial
    I'm 3 cm dailated and 65% thinned
    Out, so I'm guessing now it's any day
    Game. They let me come home having
    Contractions something about the
    Hosptial can write the doctor up
    For inducing me now, he said he would
    But it that stopping him, or I have to be 6 cm
    Before they can do anything in the process of inducing

    Never heard of that rule.
    Anyway that's what's going on
    I have to be back at the doctor at
    9am in the morning

    Maybe something else will happen

    Most hospitals have a policy of not inducing labor until 38 or 39 weeks. However, once you hit 4cm you are considered in active labor and the doctor can augment your labor.

    Well I'm home from the doctor,
    I'm dailated to 4 cm, and still having contractions he told me if I would dailate
    One more cm he would break my water, but he told me if I came home and walk & sex that he would most likely see me tonight or in the morning the baby is already head down and really low.

    I would pack my bags and put them in the car if I were you. It's not uncommon to dilate one centimeter an hour once you it 4 cm.

    If you are dilated 4cm, most likely you have already lost your mucous plug. It really doesn't look like you think it would.

    It's possible that your water broke? Time to head on to the hospital.
