Labor signs

[tobeat2829]

How long did you guys experience the "labor signs"? With my first I dilated 1cm at 30weeks and my baby dropped a couple weeks later and was born at 36 weeks. This time at 31weeks I was 1cm &70% and received steroids. I'm 32weeks now my LO has dropped, I've experienced lightening, peeing every 10to15mins, and nesting like crazy. I'm just curious if I will have this one in that same time frame, it's so stressful not knowing when you'll actually go in labor

My doc told me anything after 36 weeks they won't stop it. Histories of preterm CAN repeat itself but not always.

I'm just wondering is my history with preterm labor affect this pregnancy. I'm not receiving and hormones or anything to prolong labor, only get meds to stop contractions when I do have those oh so wonderful L&D trips. But I've read that after 36 they don't try to stop labor with medication cause they can do more harm than good. Some say 34 and some say 35 is when they stop trying to delay labor. I'm confused

My doctor hasn't checked for dialation yet, but mine dropped at 32 weeks. This is my fourth and all of mine have dropped around 32. Two were late and one was on time. I don't think I can be of any help.
