t and p please...l&d at 30 weeks
starting tues I started feeling funny but i brushed it off and thought i could make it to my appt today (of course if it got worse, i would go in)wed i spent all day in bed with horrible back pain that could not be alleviated (something i am very familiar with from DS's pregnancy) so i called ob and told them about back pain and some abdominal cramping...they told me to go to l&d.went in at 5pm and was told i was contracting (result of UTI that I found out that I don't have) but not dilating yet. cervix had softened and thinned out though.they gave me 3 doses of something so slow it down and hooked me up to an iv and was going to send me home around 8-ish...i told them i was not feeling comfortable going home (glad i spoke my mind) 9 they let me eat and gave me the first dose of the steroid shot. nurse came back in at 2am to monitor babies and found out i was contracting again...so i got 2 more shots and they never really slowed down. ob came in at 6:30 and said he wanted to transfer me to another hospital (with a NICU) in case we were really having these babies...well, on the bright side, i have always wanted to ride in an ambulance...not really at 8am through rush hour (22 miles = 1+ hour) i get here new ob checked and i am 1cm 50% effaced. immediately they start me on magnesium sulfate and penicillin (until GBS results come back). i got a catheter and cannot get out of bed...i still have not been allowed to eat ( i am DYING) until after the contractions have subsided enough. test show no UTI. our short term goal is to get the last shot tonight at 9 and then of course make it 24 hour after that...then we will see. she is hoping (like all of us) for a few weeks! so, i am asking for your thoughts and prayers PLEASE! thanks so much. have a BLESSED day!

Re: t and p please...l&amp;d at 30 weeks
You are in my T&P!
I know that you have PTL history with your DS and I am so sorry that this seems to be happening to you again. The great news is that you took charge of your care and YOU are the reason these babies are still cooking inside! I hope you are able to keep them in for at LEAST 2 more weeks and hopefully another 6 weeks. I'm also so glad that you are now in the hospital with a NICU. Please keep us posted on your progress.
You and the babies will be my T & P's

Peanut and Little Man are getting so big! 2 years old already!
finally blogging again at This Will Be: An Adventure
I will be thinking of you and your babies.
The good thing is that at 30 weeks after steroid shots, your babies are in good shape if the worst happens. But I do hope they can stop things and you can stay pregnant a while longer.
