“…This questionnaire was used after the semistructured interview was performed. Developed by the investigative team, the questionnaire was based on the common symptoms described in the literature regarding PTL (Mackey & Boyle, 2000; Mackey & Coster‐Schulz, 1992; March of Dimes, 2007b). The WSSLQ elicits a dichotomous (yes/no) response indicating if the woman is currently experiencing uterine cramping (menstrual‐like cramp, constant, or comes and goes), low dull backache (constant or comes and goes), pelvic pressure (feels like the baby is pushing down), abdominal cramping (with or without diarrhea), increase or change in mucus vaginal discharge, uterine contractions every 10 minutes or more often (may be painless), fatigue, flu‐like symptoms, gastrointestinal disturbances, bloating, stomachache, pain, pressure, tightness, soreness, stretching, burning, pushing, difficulty walking, difficulty sleeping, and “not feeling right” (March of Dimes, 2007b; Mutale et al, 1991).…”
