what should I do?! Help please!
Hi mums and bumps
Well last night I had to go to hospital because when I went for a wee and wiped (tmi coming up!) there was a blob of mucus and pinky blood on the loo roll which was part of my plug. So I called the midwife, she said to call the hospital for more advice and they asked me to come in to be checked. So I got in and they were really really lovely, they saw me straight away and the midwife did an antenatal check, listened to baby which was fine, she took my bp which was a teeny bit high but no protein my my urine. Then a dr came and did an internal (most uncomfortable, undignified experience ever!) and said that I was 1-2cm dialated but that was because I'd had a baby before and she couldnt get her fingers any further up (nice) . So the registrar said I should stay in just incase but the dr said she was happy for me to go home as long as I came back if ANY thing happened and I took it easy. So I got home about 10pm, watched tv for a little bit and went to bed. Didnt sleep very well, was just really restless and then this morning I've been having really bad period type pains and lower back pain and I've lost a tiny bit more of the plug. Should I go back in? I really dont want to because I know their going to make me stay in and I hate hospitals but should is that me being selfish? what should I do?
