The bad news is that my cervix has shortened since last week, my contractions have gotten stronger, and I was emitted to L&D. The good news is that my cervix is closed at 2.8 cm and has stayed that way overnight, despite all the contractions. Because of that, they're not giving me magnesium (phew!). I got my first steroid shot and they are currently monitoring my blood sugar (due to my GD). The babies weight 2 lbs 6oz and 2 lbs 11 oz (estimated from u/s) and are doing great.
I'll be on modified bedrest once I get home. I think I'll be getting Procardia too. I need to keep cooking these babies!

So glad your cervix is still closed, though of course that is scary!
When I was pregnant with my twins, I went through a lot of the same issues. With all of that worry, stress, and freaking out that they would be born super early, I ended up having to be INDUCED at 38 weeks! I hope your story is the same! Stay down, keep cooking those little ones, and let others take care of you!!!
