So.. im 17+2.. been bleedin alot so went to hospital early this morning.. everything was fine.. thus evening started cramping really bad from my lower back up my spine.. my cervix felt like they were burning. So i stuck my finger up there to see if i could feel why. Well, i could stick the top of my finger easily into the opening of my cervix... what does this mean?? I'm not bleeding bad anymore just spotting.. if i don't quit calling it will be back to the er in the morning.. i just don't know what my cervix would be like that???

[mommy_2_be_again90]

That it could either be ligaments pains or some braxton hicks

[mommy_2_be_again90]

All they said that everything was ok just strict bedrest..

[Clysta]

Did you ask them about that at all?

[mommy_2_be_again90]

Yeah when i was bleeding bad this morning my back started cramping like i was fixing to start my period... but it quit... now my lower back cramping an
All the way up my spine...

[Clysta]

I mean from your post earlier before you went

[mommy_2_be_again90]

I wasn't cramping when i was at the hospital.. but the bleeding they said was from the pervia

[Clysta]

Usually placenta previa doesn't cause such severe cramping or really any pain... Did they say it was the cause or what the bleeding was from?

[mommy_2_be_again90]

Yea i have had two very very bad bad bleeding spells:( then the rest had just been spotting... but never with cramping until tonight...

[eve0512]

It is common for some women to bleed while having previa... I was lucky I didnt... But u have to follow what they said! Be really carefull!

[mommy_2_be_again90]

Thank you... if my cramping don't stop or gets worse in cooking to go back in... better to be safe then sorry

[Clysta]

I agree, never check yourself for dilation - namely because most women don't know what they're looking for and it can cause more harm than good. It's possible you are dilating, but you need to have your doctor do that when you see them.

Just think positive...now that you and your bub are fine...and remember bed rest...no stress...water and vitamins....wishing you all the luck.with this pregnancy!!

[mommy_2_be_again90]

Ok:) good... I'm hoping that's why I'm bleeding so b bad is cause its trying to move or something

[eve0512]

Of course! Mine did move at 27 weeks :)

[mommy_2_be_again90]

Yea i do... which still hasnt fixed itself... is there still a chance it will...

[eve0512]

If u have placenta previa.and if.i recall right u do.i wouldnt stick.anything up there!!! It can cause bleeding! That is why they say no sex...u dont want to irritate ur cervix...

[mommy_2_be_again90]

Idk.. they just have a burning sensation... i was induced with my daughter because of complications.. i wouldn't dialate no matter what they did.. after 14 hard hours of labor i made it to 2.5cm but only on the outside.. so that ended in an emergency csec because she stated following into distress with each contraction.. my son was an emergency csec also due to different complications.. so i don't really know what it feels like to be dialated

[mommyofaria]

Could it be that your cervix is opened a little, did they check it? And you may not want to stick your finger up there again....be as careful as possible....even when getting up out of bed...

[juliejperkins]

You can walk around dilated for months without delivering. 17 weeks seems a little early for dilation but maybe call your ob and see what they say. Glad everything's ok with your lo.
