preterm labour?

Hey ladies. I'm high risk for preterm labour and now that I'm in the third trimester everything new that I feel is scary. I know I'm probably just freaking myself out. So any ladies who went into preterm labour, what were some of the signs before it happened?

Yes my little guy has been in position the whole time. I have been drinking lots of water and resting when I can. It seems to be getting better. I have also been really constipated. Oh the joys and worries of being pregnant. Just found out my obgyn had a brain aneurysm and won't be seeing patients anymore so I get to go to someone new... That's nice :|

The person that posted. It was directed at her comment under the post because I remember I freaked ot when I felt all the pelvic pressure (not needigto push pressure) and got told baby was head down and the pressure is because he head weighs the most. Hopefully it can ease some concern if thats what happened.

Was your baby in position before? The pressure could always be baby gojng head down and getting into position thats what it felt like last time for me at 28 weeks.

My water leaked for about 2-3 days. I knew it wasn't discharge. Something told me it wasn't right. I just didn't know. Then, the one day from about 3pm until 12:30am I was contracting alllll day. But it was all in my back. Horribe, horrible back pains, nothing helped it. I didn't think labor either but something wasn't right because it came out of no where and was bad. Then when I finally got to the hospital at 12:30am, my water immediately broke when I walked in. I had already been 2cm dialated. I also felt a lot of pressure until my water broke. Also my boys were very active the day before.

I had no signs before that. The day before I felt him moving around as normal i felt fine well as fine as someone that preggo and swollen can feel lol. Good luck! Try not to stress and take it easy to help reduce the risk :)

I've been feeling pressure in my lower abdomen and cervix for a couple days now and I'm worried because that's a sign. But I still feel my little guy moving around all the time.
