A member asked:

Having regular contractions (sharp pain in pelvis area)due in 2 days, first baby, 3cm & about 70% effaced, not making anymore progress,what can i do!?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Early labor: You are likely in the early phase of labor. I will advise to you go to labor and delivery for evaluation. Being that this is your first experience, you don't want to arrive too late in L & D.
