35/35:Blessed to have made it this far!

Wow I'm 35 weeks along & I've got 35 days till my due date!

I am so Blessed that I have been able to make it this far, I've been on Strict Bed Rest since 22 weeks for an IC/PTL, then while on BR I developed High BP & GD, I got the Steroid shots at 24 week, started weekly P17 shots (at 22 week-35 weeks), & the on Procardia (31 weeks-35 weeks) for BP & Contractions. I've been hospitalized 3 times for PTL,& been having contractions since 31 weeks every 5min.

But as of my 35 week apt, I'm 3cm Dilated 100% Effaced, I was taken off of Bed Rest & they stopped the Procardia & P17 shots. My OB sent a note to the rest of the practice that she is 90% sure I will deliver by Sunday. I'm a little worried about delivering soon, but after weekly growth u/s, & my amino. LO lungs are mature & he is weighing in at 5lbs.

So for all of you ladies that are new to the board, Listen to your doctors. I almost lost my LO & after 13 weeks of Strict Bed Rest it is all worth it To have healthy LO's. I wish all of you ladies the best & will keep all of you in my prayers. Fell free to PM me if you ever have any questions.

  • Congratulations on making it to 35 weeks! Glad to hear that your babys lungs are mature enough if  you end up delivering soon(which it sounds like you will) I glad you survied the bed rest and now its going to be all worth it whne you get to hold you little one in your arms! This gives me so much hope as I am on bedrest also but modified I have been on bd for a few weeks now and just have diagnosed with Gd also. Good Luck and Congratulations!
