I am 31 weeks now and totally scared, any one had this before?

Question

I am 31 weeks now and my due date is October 27.

I am 1cm dilated and having contractions, witch make me so scared and so angry.

This is my third baby, I never had this before, I am trying to get all the rest I can, even though I have 2 kids to take care off.

Any one had this before? And when will I deliver my baby if I am that tired?

P.S: I called my doctor and he Will see me on Tuesday morning, he just told me to take it easy, but I just can't stop worrying, A LOT!!!

Answer 1

you are fine my friend is 31 weeks and 4 centimeters just drink alot of water and try not to do much  

Answer 2

First - don't stress, because that will make matters worse.  Second - at this stage of development, your baby is already over three pounds.  While that's not a whopper, babies MUCH smaller survive every day.  And that's even if you were to deliver TODAY.  

As for delivering your baby if you're tired - yes, you will.  Your body WILL deliver the baby, and if you run into trouble, that's what a hospital is for.  Being a third-time mom, your cervix is softer than it was the first two times; as long as your doctor isn't concerned, you shouldn't be either.  A woman who has given birth before often delivers a little early simply because everything IS softer each time.  

So don't worry - you're doing fine.
