Back in L&D - updated in thread

Just a brief update... Started feeling yucky around 4pm. I was nauseated and feeling contractions low (below belly button) and my back qasnhurting each time. I couldnfeel it in my thighs a bit too. Decided to start timing them and they were only about 2 mins apart.
Called L&D and they said to come in. We called DH's parents......they were not sober (wedding reception) and then mine.....they took sleeping pills. My gosh! Had to call a sitter. She arrived and we headed off. I have been hooked up for about an hr and a half, and cx are every 2-5 mins. They have me a shot of morphine (not a fan! It hurt. My phone feels like it weights 50 lbs and I am burning up!).
They wanted to see of it would decrease the cx. If, it does, I go home. If they stay like this, or increase, it's RCS time!!!!!
My DH is snoring and infant sleep. I have cotton mouth and they won't let me drink.
So - that's that. I sit here high on morphine to see what happens.
I sure hope this made sense bc I don't feel like proof reading and my brain is mush.
Fingers crossed that this is the real deal!!!!!!

  • I was so disappointed last night. They game me a shot of morphine to see if it would relax me and slow down the contractions. They were 2-5 mins and stayed that way. A few went 7-10 but the rest were still 2-5. The Dr (On call, not mine) said if they stayed that way while being monitored and the pain was consistent that we were doing the c/s. Then at the end of the monitoring period, he said to let me go bc my cervix wasn't changing (my cervix never progressed with my dd or ds...even with cervadil). But then said if they contractions stay consistent or increase, to come back. Well, they had been increasing since 4pm. I met the criteria and then they changed it bc of my cervix. Well, can't really check my own cervix.....soooooooo...what's the new criteria??? We didn't get home until after 3am. I am so exhausted from no sleep and the morphine.
    My original c/s date was for 5/7, but I asked to push it back until 5/14. So it was only a few days before they wanted to do it any ways.
    I know it's a positive to allow baby to cook a bit more - but I feel like ass. They told me stay off my feet and on my left side. No activity. Well....I have a 3 and 5'year old. Not really do able.
    I haven eaten since about 3pm yesterday, and I still don't have an appetite.
    My next appt is tomorrow. :|

  • That is so disappointing, frustrating and annoying.  Similar thing happened to me over the weekend, only they gave me meds to stop contractions so I could get in more IV Iron sessions.  But like you, I was contracting like crazy but no additional cervix change.  (I've been at a 3 since like 31 weeks)  ugh.

  • Not going to lie, some typos in there. But it made me laugh because of the whole morphine thing. And my pregnancy brain tried to sound them out! Sorry you have to go through this. Doesn't sound fun! :(

    It's a BOY
