I had minor tearing. I dont kno how to explain it but they kept using your hand to stretch the outside. But i was crazy swollen down there, i couldn't walk. Was a huge fall risk.

With my first, i was 16, naturally delivered a 10lb 5oz babygirl at 37 weeks. I had retained placenta and severe hemorrhaging. With this pregnancy i started contracting at 20 weeks my cervix were completely closed and again at 23 weeks, they gave me a prescription and sent me on my way.

First had labour stopped at 34wks then delivered by csection the next week. This one they stopped it 3 times at 27wks, now 31wks, they said they wouldn't stop it again but if I make it to 36wks they'll do a csection then.

My labor was stopped at 33w and I am now 39w 5d. I was told with my first son that he was going to be at least 9lbs and he was only 7lbs 9oz at 42w when I had him, so I wouldn't really worry about they weight they tell you
