Premature Labor, a common pregnancy complication

Premature or preterm labor is when a woman goes into labor before the 37 th week of pregnancy, or three weeks before her due date. The earlier pre-term labor is spotted and treated, the better chance of stopping it. When symptoms go untreated, the cervix may open and cause an early birth of the baby. Premature babies need intensive care in the hospital to help with breathing, feeding, and regulation of body temperature.

Any woman can have pre-term labor, but some women have a higher risk. Problems with the uterus or placenta and a history of pre-term birth with another pregnancy increase the risk of preterm labor. Dehydration also boosts the chances of pre-term labor. So drink plenty of water especially in warm weather and after work out to keep from becoming dehydrated.

Call your doctor right away if you have any these signs of premature labor:

- Contractions — You may or may not feel pain, but your abdomen or stomach will get very hard (feel like it is tightening) and then relax, on and off.

- Menstrual-like cramping — You may or may not be sore with these cramps that feel like menstrual cramps.

- Gas-type pains — Sharp pains in your stomach, diarrhea or nausea may be a sign of trouble.

- Low pelvic pressure — You may feel like the baby is putting a lot of pressure down very low inside.

- Low backache — You may have a very strong ache in your lower back or could just feel a dull ache in that area.

- Blood from your vagina — Light spotting or an important amount of blood should be reported to the doctor right away. Blood can be red or brown in color.

- Increased discharge from your vagina — Much more discharge than what you are used to during your pregnancy can be a sign of preterm labor. A sudden gush of a lot of water, or a small trickle that is nonstop should also be reported to the doctor. Discharge can be watery, pinkish, or brownish in color.
