Need some advice, am I experiencing pre labour??

Hi Girls

I am really needing someone to give me an idea as to what is happening with my body at the moment.

I am 30 weeks pregnant with twins and at my Ob appt last Thursday I started getting contraction type pains - much different to good old BH's. My Ob sent me to the hospital to have a steriod shot and to have monitoring, which showed I was having small contractions every couple of minutes but he seemed to think it was caused by my uterus being irritated due to the rapid growth. I had a further steriod shot on Friday to hopefully mature the babies lungs and I really need to hold onto them until 32 weeks so we don't get transferred to a NICU in Melbourne.

I have however over the weekend really been feeling "off" in myself and just don't feel right. I'm not sleeping - too be expected - and can't tell if things are changing as my belly is just so tight and uncomfortable all the time. I never experienced labour with my DD as I had a scheduled c/s and will be having these 2 via c/s as well, but do you think I should be prepared for something to happen very soon.

Any ideas or advice would be much appreciated.

How are you going this morning? If I were you I would be ringing the hospital to get their advice. Hope everything has settled down for you.
