Can you help me by answering this question. Please share.?

Question

I am currently 34 weeks pregnant. At 32 and half weeks i started labor and was given a shot to stop it. Then someone told me that because i had that shot that I wouldn't have labor again until at 40 weeks and would more than likely go over 40 weeks. My questions is this true? Did you have that shot and what was the result? I am really curious so please share your experiences.

Answer 1

I went into preterm labor and also had that shot to stop it. He was born 10 days earlie and my labor was really easy. It is just up to your body and your baby as to when you will go. I would say that is not true.

Answer 2

having the shot to stop labor does just that until your body thinks that its time again i never had the shot but i know someone who had to have the shot many times thru out her pregnancy and then still went into labor at like 37 weeks so all the shot does is stop you at that point in time from having the baby and stop it for a few days or so but you could start again tomorrow or in a week or two from now it just depends on your body

Answer 3

I went into premature labor at 33 weeks with my first pregnancy and got the shot too. I delivered my son 3 hours before my due date! So I therfor never made it to 40, did I?

Answer 4

HI, I HAD THE SHOT, YOU WILL NOT GO TO 40 WEEK, THE PERSON THAT TOLD YOU THAT DIDN'T KNOW WHAT SHE WAS SAYING. YOU WILL START LABOR WHEN YOUR BODY IS READY. JUST RELAX YOUR BODY WILL DO EVERY THING FOR YOU.

Answer 5

I had the shot and they said that it was not ture...and that I could still have her early...I am 36 wks had the shot at 32 wks too.

Answer 6

that is not true at all....they just gave you the shot to prolong you in pregnancy so the babies lungs are fully developed...just dont worry..good luck and congrats..
