A member asked:
39 weeks got membranes stripped yesterday having severe back pains and irregular contractions, should i go in?

Could be labor: Since you are 39 weeks and experiencing contractions labor is certainly possible. If you feel you may be in labor then it is prudent to go to your designated hospital and be evaluated. You may also want to contact your Obgyn to get more specific instructions.

Go in Now..: I don't like your description of severe back pain...could be signs of a placental problem like an abruption. You and your baby need immediate evaluation - sign off and leave for hospital now. CONGRATULATIONS
