XP: The ONE night DH has a boys' night out, I end up in LD

Early Sunday morning, I woke up at 3 AM to pee and noticed I was having a BH contraction. I then had about 6 more in the next 15 minutes. I called my oncall doc, who told me to drink a glass of water and see if it helped. It didn't, so I woke up my pup and headed to L&D. DH was at a hotel in downtown Portland, about 30 minutes away, so I tried to call his cell phone and hotel room and have the staff knock on the door. No answer.

Turns out I was having contractions every five minutes. They gave me terbutaline  to stop the contractions. Fetal fibronectin was negative, cervix was closed but soft. DH finally woke up at 8 AM and saw all my texts and calls and headed to the hospital. The high-risk and on-call docs wanted me to stay for observation since I'm on 26 weeks. They gave me indocin and checked my cervical length a few times. I was discharged this morning after only having two contractions last night and no cervical changes. I see both my OB and MFM on Thursday, so in the meantime I've been told to take it easy at home and come in if I have any signs of preterm labor.  I'm just so glad everything's ok and I'm home.

    So glad to hear that all is ok!  I ended up in L&D over night when I was 24 weeks and DH was on a mancation in Vegas.  It was horrible and scary but all turned out fine and they stayed in until 35.6 weeks!
