For contractions at 27 weeks even after drinking lots of water and resting all day?

is your L&D in the same area as your ER?

When I went in with DS I went to the ER and they then sent me up to L&D.

I'd call your ob/mw and see what they suggest...most likely they'll say L&D

As an ER nurse, most hospital's policy is over 20 weeks up to L&D for any back or abdominal pain. Us ER nurses, don't know nothin' about birthin no babies. LOL

Yeah, if you go to the ER they will automatically send up on to L&D. Hope everything is ok!

I'm not sure policies and I've called my ob like 5x and no answer... I guess I'll just go in and ask where to go

They will send you to L&D, hope everything is alright, go now

I agree that you should go in. Always better to be safe than sorry.

Over 20 weeks L&D is our hospitals policy as well. Praying everything is fine.
