Pregnant after IF

UPDATE on my L&D visit

Hi Ladies,

Thanks for the support last night! It was a very unexpected surprise for us given I didn't feel any different. My NST showed contrax every 5 minutes so my Dr sent me to L&D.  When I got there, I was having contrax every 2-4 minutes consistently. They hooked me up to an IV and gave me terbutaline (spelling?) and that stopped them almost immediately. 

After several hours and a pelvic check, everything looked good enough to go home. Cervix is still closed, thank goodness! I have another apt with my OB Monday morning, and until then I am on bed rest.

As of now, I am considered preterm and Dr. just wants to get me to 37 weeks. I think we can do it! Again, thanks for all your thoughts and prayers last night!

    YES!! I was shaking a lot! I couldn't even hold anything for a while but it subsided. I only got one dose but the nurse told me they give 3 doses 15 mins apart, eek!
