what do you think?

Question

im almost 32 weeks pregnant and wondering if it is to early to have my baby? like if these contractions are real what will happen to the baby?

Answer 1

Im sure everything is fine, but I am not there to know how you are feeling. But don't get all worried reading what some of these other people are saying (babies having to stay in hospital for months, etc) Babies are considered viable after 25 weeks now. My friend delivered twins at 32 weeks weighing 3 and 4 pounds and they were home within 3 days and 9 months later doing wonderfully. Time contractions. If they are coming 5-7 minutes and lasting at least 30 seconds regularly for 30 minutes then give the doctor a call. Otherwise they are probably braxton hicks. I had them ALL the time when I was pregnant...and boy sometimes they felt like the real thing!!

Answer 2

If I'm not mistaken, babies can survive outside of the womb at 24 weeks. I have a friend who gave birth to her son about 14 weeks early and her baby is a perfectly normal 16-month old now and is just as big as another friend's baby who was born full-term. He was in the hospital for several months, though. Your baby will be small and his/her lungs won't be fully developed and he/she will probably be in the hospital for several weeks to a month. Of course, there are exceptions depending on how healthy you are, how healthy your baby is now, etc., so only your dr. can really answer that question according to ultrasounds, your medical history, your pregnancy so far, etc. But that's my take...

Answer 3

Relax and stop panicking. They probably are braxton hicks if they begin to become more regular or don't disappear in a couple of hours ring your Doctor or go to a hospital to get checked to make sure that your not going into labour. They can give you drugs to stop labour but it doesn't always work. It is way too early for your baby to be born but there are some things that doctors can do to help. Good luck to you and your baby

Answer 4

First they will try and stop your contractions and properly do a amino synthesis to see if the baby's lungs are mature enough to breath on its own. The baby might need some help breathing but I'm sure the baby will be fine. Hope all goes well.

Answer 5

the baby could be in the hospital for months. It has underdeveloped lungs and is not strong enough to handle the outside world yet. talk to your doctor. if your having cxontractions they can give you a shot to stop it. according to the pregnancy week by week book, a baby has a better chance at surviving outside the mother during the 7 month versus the 8th month.

Answer 6

yeah it is so early cause babies before 36 weeks will conseider them premature. if u deliver now ur baby is going to be so small (under 5 pounds) so he needs to stay in the hospital for a month or two. u really dont need this headach cause i tried it myself with my twins..try to reach ur due date as much as u can.36 weeks if fine but it is better to get to 40 weeks so u have healthy baby. good luck

Answer 7

37 weeks is considered full term, so your baby would be very premature, you can always tell if it's false labor if you get up and walk around, drink some water, (just change what you're doing) if they still continue, call your doctor.

Answer 8

if you had the baby tonight it would be sick and in the neonatal intesive care for aa few days to a few weks its lungs arent fully devolped yet

Answer 9

There are just braxton hicks probably. Stay hydrated in all this heat. If you don't have enough water it can back them hurt more.

Answer 10

call a a hospitals ask a nurse program and they could probablly tell you about it.
