Diarrhoea at 39 weeks pregnant and back acheat top of back.. show has been coming away for a few days and was 1.5cm dilated on thursday.. labour close?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
At 39 weeks...: At 39 weeks, labor is always close. Contractions can start happening any day. The ob-gyn doctor's should be followed until delivery. There should be instructions on what to watch for each day while awaiting labor to begin (pains will be in the lower back, not upper). If not sure what to do, or any concerns about when to go into the hospital, just call the doctor's office for help.
