What to do when you think you're in laborIf you believe you are in labor during the day, call our office at (574) 295-8805
When labor contractions become regular, start timing them. During the evening or night, if you note 12 labor contractions in 2 hours, each lasting 30 seconds or if water breaks, go directly to Elkhart General Hospital through Admitting at the "Main Entrance". After 8:00 p.m., go through the Emergency Department (without calling the doctor for approval). You do not need to call if you think you have passed your mucus plug. However, if you are in question about what you should do, please call our office at (574) 295-8805. In the evening and at night, the answering service will contact the physician. Please note: If there is a delay in the doctor returning your call, it may be due to him/her being in delivery or surgery. If you can not wait - you certainly may proceed to the hospital. To learn more, please call us at (574) 295-8805. |
