What should I do if one of my triplets head feels like it's going down my cervix and I don't feel contractions

Question

This is not hapenning to me but has happened to my friend. I'm 23 years old and this is my first pregnancy. I'm really scared if this will happen to me also because in fact, the friend of mine was my sister! What should I do?

This is has happened to my sister back in 2002. I'm scared if it will happen to me because we were both carrying multiple babies.

Answer 2

Well I don't really know about being pregnant with triplets, only about carrying one baby. But generally speaking when you can feel the pressure of their head down there it just means that the baby has dropped into position for giving birth. It happens earlier in some women than others. With my first, she dropped almost a month and a half before I was even due. And with some women it only happens 2 weeks before. Every woman is different.
I would also think that with triplets they are a lot more cramped in there so she might be experiencing a bit more pressure on her cervix than a woman who is only carrying one baby.
Hope this helps!

Answer 3

the person that feels this needs to see thier OB/GYN right away to make sure the person isn't dealing with an incompetent cervix, which could cause a loss of the pregnancy.

Answer 4

I didn't have trips but with my pregnacy I felt a lot of pressure with no contractions my OB said it was normal....but with trips it might be different..wouldn't hurt to call your OB in the AM and see what's up..and good luck with three babies :) one is handful enough for me,,,bless your heart..

Talk to your midwife or doctor or whoever is looking after you during your pregnancy and express your concern to them. Im sure they will be able to reassure you.

Good luck!

I'd get her to the hospital and have her checked out. I can't hurt to go to the ER and have her checked.
