I didn't take the bath.. I just took a shower instead

[paisleysept8]

Im still having contractions..  every 6 minutes

[Jbeth1234]

It sounds like you should be delivering soon:) the reason your having diarrhea is because your body is trying to cleanse it's self for labor and it is a sign labor is near:) but if the contractions stopped in the bath then it was probably braxton hicks because contractions won't stop if you take a bath.

Still having contractions?

[paisleysept8]

Ughhh this is all so stressful

[Ryleesmommy0914]

They stopped my contractions 2-3 Min apart at 37+2 BC I wasn't dilating...... Now I'm still not dialating at all with contractions.... They had to give me the shot twice... Wish they'd just induce. If it gets too bad call your Dr and tell him what's going on and ask him if ur not dialating would he please just induce you... Ur close enough

[paisleysept8]

Well yeahh they stopped them because I wasn't dilating. That's why Im afraid to go in now

[paisleysept8]

Im in so much pain.. which is crazy because I have a high pain tolerance

[Staceyyyyy91314]

Haha aweeee, sounds close! Good luck, mama!!! :)

[ashley372]

You have diarrhea because your body is cleaning itself out for labor

[paisleysept8]

I showed my parents my times.. my stepdad blurted out we're not going to the hospital untily water breaks or he sees a head.. because I've been 3 times since I was 34 weeks

[arizaie]

Wow!ur almost at 3-5 min apart. Good Luck!!!  

[paisleysept8]

Why do I have diarrhea thou??? And I got it at publix supermarket @ericatoday

[paisleysept8]

Can I soak in a warm bath to ease the pain??? They're every 6 minutes now

[ericatoday]

That's crazy that they stopped them. I've never heard of that if they're 3-5 mins apart. Where did you buy the tea?

[AngelesV]

Well theyre crazy,  they shouldnt stop them anytime after 37 weeks. Or 39.

[ericatoday]

If they're 3-5 minutes apart and you're 39 weeks they won't stop them they should be doing things to help dialate you. Good luck hope they get closer

[paisleysept8]

I went in when I was 39+1 and they stopped them

[AngelesV]

They wont stop your contractions. Youre too far ahead.

[paisleysept8]

She won't induce me until Im a week overdue... now I have diarrhea (tmi)

[victoriamichelle1010]

My pregnancy counselor told me to follow the 4-1-1 rule then head to the hospital.
4 minutes apart
1 minute in length for
1 hour.

I have the same problem but opposite from you! I'm dilated enough to be admitted but I'm not having any contractions! So frustrating!
