Success after IF

Ugh, In L&D Possible PTL

Hi ladies,

I haven't been on the board in soooo long so I apologize to pop in our of nowhere.  After my pregnancy w/ #1 where I was incredibly stressed, I was really trying to have a non-neurotic, "normal" pregnancy.  

 My 1st tri tests came back w/ low PAPP-A so I started NSTs today.  I was having some contractions yesterday AM so I mentioned it.

 I've now been here since 8am yesterday.  My cervix was 1-2cm yesterday AM and was a "loose 2" last night - they haven't chrcked this AM.  I'm having uncomfortable/mildly painful contractions regularly.  The good news is my fFN came back negative...but bc of what's going on w/ my cervix they're watching me.

They gave me 1 dose of steroids for the baby at 2:30pm and are hoping to administer more at 2:30pm today.  They also gave me Procardia but I'm not sure that's doing anything, and I haven't had a dose in 12 hrs bc my BP dropped too low.

 I'm pretty scared...I could've use T&Ps...

Re: Ugh, In L&D Possible PTL

  • I hope they stop the contractions! Interestingly enough I just talked to my doctor about this. I'm not sure if it is different b/c of the twins, but she said after 34 weeks they won't try to stop labor if it does start. I feel like ~33 weeks is so early,

  • Glad to see you back, although I wish it was with better news.  I've had all my babies a little early but no real pre-term labor.  I hope things get under control soon.  We'll definitely be thinking of you.

    Kelly, Mom to Christopher Shannon 9.27.06, Catherine Quinn 2.24.09, Trey Barton lost on 12.28.09, Therese Barton lost on 6.10.10, Joseph Sullivan 7.23.11, and our latest, Victoria Maren 11.15.12

    Secondary infertility success with IVF, then two losses, one at 14 weeks and one at 10 weeks, then success with IUI and then just pure, crazy luck.  Expecting our fifth in May as the result of a FET.
