if a 23 week pregnant woman was in a car accident and appeared to be somewhat hurt,would ems rush her to the emergency room or to labor and delivery to be checked out?this is an odd question,but something ive always wondered about.any women that are pregnant,where would you want to be taken to be checked?

i'm sure that they would rush her to the ER and then let the hospital decide what they think is best for her....all depends on the doc you have and how your pregnancy is going....as for me, it all depends on where the accident is. if it's near home i wouldn't let anyone touch me once i got to the ER except my hubby and doc and i would go from there. if i was in anchorage three hours away, ER and let the specialist who saw me several months ago who specializes in multiples deal with me along with my hubby and nothing else. that and it all depends on what TriCare says....

They are both in the hospital. EMS automatically goes to the ER, but the ER will send anyone passed 20 weeks to L&D to be checked out there before theyw ill touch them. Unless of course, mom has serious injuries....then teh procedure might be different....

they won't admit you till your contractions have been under 5 minutes aside for an hour (exceedingly much had my 4th baby in my front room via fact they saved insisting on that certainty). as quickly as you realize you're in exertions, if it incredibly is throughout time-honored place of work hours, call your huge-unfold physician and spot what he needs you to do while it incredibly is time. If it incredibly is the middle of the evening you in many circumstances pass to the emergency room. talk on your physician at your next pass to to confirm what his rules are so which you at the instant are not stunned while the time comes.

Call your OB Dr. and tell them first what happened and depending on how bad the car accident was. If it's really bad no question about it. HOSPITAL!!!!!!!!
I always was given my Dr. # to his home and office.
