Plan of care: 3 m dilated is a big deal at 32 weeks. Often the patient is placed on bedrest at home or even kept in the hospital. Steroid injections are given to accelerate the fetal lung maturity. In some cases medications to prevent or slow contractions are given. Please clarify your plan of care with your treating doctor for this high risk pregnancy. Stool softeners can be used for constipation
