3 Signs of Premature Labor
If any of these possible signs of premature labor occur, stop whatever you are doing and call your healthcare provider. Sit or lie down while you wait to hear what he or she advises.
1. Your membranes rupture and amniotic fluid either trickles or gushes from your vagina.
2. Contractions that you may have previously thought were normal Braxton-Hicks contractions now become more intense and more regular.
3. Sudden onset of low back pain or crampy pressure in your pelvic area; a feeling that you have not felt before.
