Due date today! hurting? help!?

Okay, Today is my due date. My whole body has been hurting all day. For the past 5 hours I have had contractions 3-4 minutes apart. They are really strong but not in my pelvic area. Every now and then during a contraction ill get a sharp pain in my lower abdomen but all my contraction pains are in my back. It hurts really bad. right above my tailbone. and i also have alot of pressure in the front, but it just doesnt hurt up there, only in the back. If I went to the hospital do you think they would send me home since its my due date or would they induce me?





btw i know less than 5 percent give birth on the due date.. but my due date is over in a few hours.

Due date today! hurting? help!?
If your contractions are 3-4 min apart you need to get to the hospital! A lot of women only have back labor which is what is sounds like is happening with you... Call someone to take you to the Hospital immediately if you don't have anyone there or can't get anyone to take you call for an abulance... Oh and Congratulations on your new little one!
Reply:call the doctor and ask.if you wait to long you cant get any pain medicatoin.CALL THE DOCTOR!
Reply:I THINK YOU SHOULD GO TO THE HOSPITAL NOW. NO THEY WILL NOT SEND YOU BACK HOME. ESPECIALLY SINCE YOU ARE DUE TODAY. YOUR CONTRACTIONS ARE CLOSE ENOUGH, GO NOW!!! GOOD LUCK
Reply:if your contractions are regular you need to go to the hospital now!!! you should go when they are 5 min apart! go to the hospital anyway....they will send you home if it isn't time!


I was born 2 hrs 30 min past my due date...





I was in labor with first 4 hours %26amp; 2nd 3 hours....if you wait too long, they can't give you epidural!





Contgratulations, BTW...if it's a blue eyed girl, name her after me... ;o)
Reply:All of my babies gave me pain in my back. So, I think you should go to the hospital because of how close your pains are coming.
Reply:whether they send you home or not, going to the hospital will do you and your baby no harm.
Reply:SOME PEOPL;E HAVE CONTRACTIONS THAT WAY GET YOUR BUTT TO THE HOSPITAL AND GET CHECKED OUT IMMEDIATELY AND KEEP US POSTED. IF IT IS NOT CONTRACTIONS FOR THE BABY THEN YOU NEED TO MAKE SURE EVERYTHING IS OKAY......
Reply:babydoll why are you on a computer go to the hospital it might not come today it could be after 12am good luck on you delivery
Reply:You should go to the hospital because they can tell you if you are dialated and if your contractions are 3-4 minutes apart it is likely you are dialating. Water breaking as a sign of labor is very rare and unlikely to happen so don't let that hold you back. Good luck on delivery.
Reply:i'm not sure, and my answer won't help you with anything, but GOOD LUCK,,, THE BIG DAY, WOW! :D
Reply:uh...i'd call my doctor or something
Reply:i had all my labor pains in my back, i had nothing in the front. i think you should go to the hospital if they are 3-4 minutes apart. my were 7 minutes apart and i was 5cm when i got there. had a baby boy 7 hours later. oh and my waters didn't break. they had to after 5 hours as nothing was happening. good luck
Reply:If you have any feeling at all that you should go to the hospital, go for it. Better safe than sorry.


And if they send you home, they send you home. At leas you know yo and your baby are alright.
Reply:your about to have a baby and your on the computer!!! Go to the doctor woman!! GEEZ
Reply:call the labor and delievery dept in your hospital, explain what you are feeling and they will tell you what to do from there. If you go in they could send you home. start timing the length of the contraction not the time between. this will help to dtermine which stage of labor you are actually in. good luck hopefully everything will come along quickly for you today.
Reply:they probably wont induce you if you are not in labor.


sounds to me like you are in labor, why dont you call your OB and ask if you should go in. In the mean time walk walk walk, up and down stairs if ya can, and have some sex, that always seems to help move things along


Good luck
Reply:i would say your in labour, go to the hospital.
Reply:Honey, if your contractions are 3-4 minutes apart, then you need to go to the hospital NOW!
Reply:go to the hospital if you have sparp pains it could mean alot of things. you could have a breach baby or mabey the umblical cord is notted and baby cant breath. go to the hospital but what ever you do not FREAK OUT YOU NEED TO STAY COM AND BREATH
Reply:No need to induce. The contractions will get stronger. START WALKING, just back and forth.


Good luck and congratulations!
