I don't think so. I remember my dr. saying that pretty early in my previous pregnancies, but they came right on time.

Your doctor was basically making an observation about your baby's position. Some babies flip all around, while some get into the head down position and stay there! If you did go into labor early, that would not be the reason. You may feel cramped not, but believe it or not, your baby has plenty of time to flip around and back many times before your due date. Mine sure did!

My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...
