Hello and welcome,
I competely understand your concern.
As of now you are receiving
procardia for the perterm pain. But the loss of mucus indicates that the cervix may be opening up. In this case use of
progesterone, head low position, procardia and even other drugs like
isoxsuprine may prevent it.
So I suggest that you please call your OB and inform this.
Also sicne you have received the steroid shot it is good for the baby. Further bed rest, an evaluation for presence of
vaginal infection and treating it if it is there along with drugs will help in preventing
preterm labor.
So please call your doctor and inform this issue as soon as possible.
All my best wishes are with you.
Take care.
Hope this satisfies your query.
Thanks for using HCM.
Feel free to ask any more questions that you may have.
