GOING HOME!! Here's to hoping my girls stay put! *UPDATE in comments*

I've been in L&D since about 4:30. I hadn't been out of bed all day. Every time I woke up I was just in so much pain and felt so sick I just went right back to sleep. I finally thought maybe if I took a shower I would feel better. Got in the shower and then did not have the energy to even do anything but stand there. Had a pounding headache and just had to get out. Got T to check my blood pressure and it was 156/111. Called my doctor and since I hadn't felt the girls move since yesterday, was told to go straight to L&D. My doctor came to check everything out, and my blood pressure still hadn't went down after an hour of laying in the bed and I have been having contractions. She monitored them and then decided to go ahead and do the steroids and a shot to relax things and slow things down. She will be back in the morning for the next steroid shot and to see about contractions then, but I'll be staying here 
That shot has made my heart race and I feel super jittery and I don't like it at all. I'm hot, highly uncomfortable, and just really want my girls to stay put. Plus I'm here alone until T gets off work at 3am. Trying to get some rest, but just so paranoid and hoping that things turn around soon and the girls can stay in and grow some more!
