Progression question

Hey everyone. I've had a rough couple of days so I haven't been super active lately. My contractions keep ramping up for a few hours at night but then they go away again. I woke up this morning and felt just awful. It turns out my blood pressure was pretty low, at 85/73. I drank a bunch of water, had some caffeine and two hours later it was 90/60. Doc had me come in and they strapped me up to the machines.
Sawyer decided it was a good time to give a non responsive test so I ended up on the machine an hour and a half before they decided he was ok in there. They did say I'm a little early to really fail him on one yet. The part that scared me was that she checked me and while I am still 2.5 dilated I went from way up high to way down low with babies station. Her eyes got a bit big when she checked me. I go back in the morning for an ultrasound and another NST and to see her.
Would you be concerned about the much lower station? I just feel off but I can't decide if I'm being paranoid. I want so badly to make it to 36 weeks but I would settle for 33 at least. I'm 31+2 today.
Also, kudos if you made it through this rambling long post! Haha.

Re: Progression question
The good news is that they are really on top of things. And if you do go into labor before 34 weeks they can still stop it with meds, so there is a very good chance that you'll make it to at least 34/35 weeks!
Good luck, rest up, feel well and let us know what's going on!
