Thelay - thanks! Im still having bloody discharge. Contractions are irregular, but definitely painful and causing backaches to me. Sighs. I experienced more contractions when sitting/standing. So im mostly lying down now. Will tahan till the contractions are stronger/closer. Im starting to freak out though. Not too sure what to expect :(

I can't bf! Cause he's at special care. Only can pump and feed bm. Hopefully he'll be okay, blood test results are tmr. I pray hard. :(
Thanks for your blessings!

Feeling exhausted! I started bloody discharge on tuesday though gynae said baby not engaged and still high / lots of water on monday . Got sent home cause cervix not ripe. Next 2 days got painful abdomen contractions, then extended to backache as well. Contractions got regular and stronger last night at 11 - 5 to 7 mins interval. We came into hospital at 1am. 1.5cm dilate. Admit into hospital while monitoring. Contractions were bearable / unbearable at times. I tahan for 8 hours without epidural. But only 3cm dilate despite 2 mins contraction. Couldnt take it, ask for epidural. Took about 30-45mins to come. And it was heaven after epidural. I managed to sleep for few hours while the contractions continue. Cervix was fully dilate about 1pm. Pushed and wanted to vacuum her out, but I managed to push her out when I was vomitting. Lol. She's a girl. 3.05kg :)) one piece of advice, if u are 1cm dilate and cant take the pain, just ask for epidural. Sometimes 1st child can take long to dilate. If I took epidural earlier, my girl might be out faster :)) dont wait until u cant tahan the pain, cause it will take time for them to arrange for the epidural and for the effect to kick in. And the distress u are in will cause the body to slow down progress to give birth as well

Want to advice everyone here to keep yourself well hydrated..it's very important and I realized it the tough way..

I have always been drinking good amount of water but unfortunately last week due to the consumption of other fluids I didn't realize that my water consumption got reduced and I got dehydrated. This came to the picture only when I went for my check up scan the amniotic fluid level was less than minimum level. My doc immediately adviced me to take CTG to see if the baby heartbeat is ok as the fluid is too low. Fortunately the heart rate was ok but she warned me that if the fluid level further drops down then she has to induce me immediately. I was not prepared for this and I broke down. I was not prepared to take up induction by 36 weeks..
For the next two days I had been consuming much water and other fluids to help recover the minimum level. Fortunately after 5 days the level has crossed the minimum level. I am still on lots of fluids and hopefully can nest my baby inside for few more weeks.

My doc informed me that if the fluid level is low, the body might get the message that it is time for labour and the pain may start though I am not full term. So need to take care with the fluid level. Also if the fluid level is low, the baby won't grow further.

So ladies take care, keep yourself well hydrated. Consumption of water, coconut water and isotonic drinks also helps..
