I’m 33 wks preg w/twins. My hospital has a preterm labor prevention program for high risk pregnancies (twins) - a nurse calls 1x week to check on me. They would rather you call if you think you have symptoms than wait and have it turn out badly. They deal with this stuff all day. Trust yourself. You know your body best. If something is wrong, take action. Also, it’s very important to drink those 8-12 glasses of water. Being dehydrated makes your uterus irritable and contract more.

i had all these …
i had all these syptoms when i was 17 weeks , i lost my baby, i did call my doctor all they told me was to lay down and drink water, once my symptoms got worst they told me their office was close and to go to the ER my husband took me and there the er made me wait for about 3 hrs, when i finally went in i was 3 cm and they refuse to give me anything to stop the contractions, they said all they could do was to make me as comfortable as possible until my misscarriage. DRs dont care.

sorry you miss …
sorry you miss understood i ment that the video was over reacting and the symptoms they describe can be very mormal and it just seemed to scare women for no reason…i’ve had 2 kids and if i watched this when i was pregnant then it would have scared me and my kids were fine….sorry for the offence it wasn’t intended

Erm… no… never …
Erm… no… never been pregnant with twins before!!! and if worrying about these symptoms was over-re-acting, wats the point in tellin ladies they are warning signs.
As it goes im 36+2 now and braxton hicks are relentless… but i found out i have an irritable uterus…. so not that normal hey!!!
Wats normal for one isnt normal for another!
If this video is such ballsh!t then shouldnt it be deleted?
LADIES DONT phone ur midwives if u have a problem.. UR OVER REACTING!!!!

This is a helpful video, but some of those signs of pre-term labor are very similar to those of just being pregnant. If I called my doctor everytime I had a backache, or braxton hicks contraction- she’d think I was crazy.
