Pregnancy

I am pregnant and think I am in labor.

If you are 37 weeks pregnant or more with your first pregnancy, let your contractions occur every 5 minutes for about an hour then proceed to the birthing center. If you are earlier than 37 weeks pregnant and your contractions are occurring regularly you need to go to the birthing center for evaluation. Any time that you have bright red bleeding or break/leak your water you are to go to the birthing center AT THAT TIME.
