Mucus plug

Oh gosh, MrsS, just saw this thread, hoping your little boys stay in there a wee bit longer!
Crossing fingers for slowing labor & both bubs being OK.

Seems they are giving you the run around. I would be so p***ed at the moment as all you want are answers. All this drama is making me happy I'm going to St John's and not the Base.

Have they arranged to have one of the OB's see you as I know they all cover the Base when they are on call??

No they haven't Kelly they haven't even check the us report from yesterday I just had a dr come in then saying something about when my heart scans done I can go home?!
Typical the day Lloyd HAS to work and won't finish til 5 I can go home but can't drive ... This hospital ****s me!

Oh dear :(

I am really concerned with your hospital treatment atm. I really hope things settle down for you x

Be strong, but I think it might be time to chuck a tantrum and see if that helps ;)

Hang in there. How is the pain?

That's such BS, I would drive you home as I have my Ob appt today but it's not until 4pm and who knows how far behind they will be. I'd probably get there the same time as your DH. I think it is pretty bad sending you home when you have NO answers, will have no chance to rest and without seeing an Ob. I can just imagine now you will be constantly stressing about what is happening to your little boys in there until you can see them on the outside.

I'll keep my fingers crossed for you to get through the next 2 weeks, that's all we want to make that magic 34 week mark.

I'm with Kelly, I don't get why they'd send you home when they have no answers. If they send you home where you can't relax and go into full blown labour, what then? They sound like they're doing a pretty rotten job :(

I'm also with jax, kick up a big fuss so they know you're not going anywhere til you know exactly what's happening, what the next steps are, and they start getting their act together :hug:

I'm confused! They just mentioned Melbourne again :( I just want to know what's going on my body is so tired I can't even tell what's going on with it.
Contractions are back to every 5 mins and measuring 70-80 on the taco, resting heart rate is 121bpm
I've had LOTS of very goopy almost jelly like discharge this morning no blood in it so it wouldn't be a show or plug or anything would it?

Oh you poor thing, I think now is a really good time to demand to speak with a DR. Sometimes they don't get that you have not really been spoken too, they assume someone has told you.

It sounds like a show to me, I only had a little bit of blood in mine at the start of it. You must be running out of energy you poor thing.

Oh honey, I hope they can stop it.
Which hospital would they send you to??
Just googled where you live, at least not too far away from Melbourne. I live 500km, one way, from Melbourne. And I had all my antenatal care there and got flown there at 31 weeks. I had a very sick little bubba.

Fingers crossed that your beautiful little boys stay in a bit longer.

I'm presuming the royal Womens it's where I had my son at 25 weeks and where I went when I was in pre term labour at 26 weeks with DD1

Hmm that does sound like your plug is really coming out and it could also be the start of your show. I would be digging in my heels and demanding to talk to someone who knows what is going on. You can't leave without having your questions answered. I think you are getting some pretty sucky treatment too.

I'm getting like burning sensations in my you know where too when I have a tightening i don't remember having that in any other labour but they are all a blur to me anyway

When did they last do an internal to check dilation?

Man they need to get you sorted out and quick because if you are going in to labour your boys aren't in favourable positions to come out naturally and the last thing you would then need is to have to be air ambulanced to Melbourne.

If they are so unsure I don't understand why they don't get you to Melbourne ASAP and then hopefully you will be able to be seen by an Ob to get this all under control.

Got to love the base is all I can say Kelly!

Last check for dilation was when I came in Tuesday morning. I just told the nurse about the jelly like goop I got this morning in the toilet and all she asked was if there was any blood.
Apparently my heart scan is soon so maybe just maybe they can give me an answer on something.
I just looked in the mirror too and my face is so flushed and red you'd think I'd been sunburnt

Tell them you want to get checked again, and you want them to tell you what's going on as they know it.

Demand it (nicely) and ask if they really want unplanned vaginal frank breech delivery of 32wk twins

Oh darl, just found this thread.
The way they have been treating you is just atrocious!
Sounds like you're losing your plug too, and I had the stingy/burning sensations while in labour with Elise when I was dilating just prior to transition.

Threaten them if you have to to get an internal done to check for dilation, and if you need to demand to go to melbourne or dandenong (a friend of mine worked in dandenong's NICU 2 years ago and said they were really good there).

Looking like you've been sunburnt doesn't sound good either, hope the heart scan can tell you what's wrong so it can be fixed up!

Hope everything settles down for you darl xxxx
