T&P your way!! Hope they can keep baby in for as long as necessary! Never discount the strength of a preemie though. They are true fighters. Keep strong mama!

T&Ps! My oldest was born at 33w5d. He was in the NICU for 18 days and was and is very healthy! Even if you don't make it that far at your gestation babies do really well. And every day you can keep baby in is great!

mangomimosa · January 2015

30 weeks is a big milestone - most babies do well if born at 30+ weeks! Obviously longer is better -- my thoughts are with you!

gabriela134 · January 2015

How much did ur baby weight ? Im scared that my baby is too small he only weight 3 pounds

hpaine2 · January 2015

With my last pregnancy I was in the hospital starting at 30weeks due to contractions and high fetal heart rate with twins. The good thing about being in the hospital is that they give you the steroid injections to develop babies lungs. In my case I delivered at 35w4d and my twins weighed 5lbs and 6lbs and NEVER needed any NICU time. They are 19 months now And have hit all milestones on time or early. I strongly believe they were so healthy because of the medical interventions from my time in the hospital.

gabriela134 · January 2015

Well I also got the steroid injection and fingers crossed my baby can make it till 34 weeks then it's official my baby has to come out

Thanks

This was me last pregnancy, but I didn't make it to 34 weeks. I was admitted at 32+4 for ruptured membranes and ended up delivering that night. DD was perfectly healthy and spent only 72 hours in the NICU and never required medical intervention. We stayed inpatient for almost a month though to monitor apnea and Bradycardia events that were only detectable via leads. Clinically she was a rockstar.

Thinking of you and hope you can keep that baby cooking a bit longer. 30+ weekers tend to do very well, though!

stine28 · January 2015

Good luck!

lib1974 · January 2015

Sorry you're going through this. Good thoughts your way!

gabriela134 · January 2015

Thanks for the information really feel a little better. I'm currently now having blood with the liquid hopefully my baby can wait a little longer

KD32412 · January 2015

Glad to hear you and baby are doing well! Every day baby stays in makes it much better. My water broke at 32 weeks and baby came at 33. The steroid shots are awesome, they really help with lung development. I would say definitely STAY OFF YOUR FEET, you might start getting stir crazy, but walking around can cause labor to start. Drink lots of water, stay hydrated, and if you start feeling feverish, let the nurses know. In my case, I thought I had constipation, but it was actually my daughter's head dropping low into my pelvis - so if you think you're "constipated" ask for laxatives and no pushing on the toilet

Try your best not to stress out. Babies that come at 30 weeks do very well. They want you to make it to 34 weeks because it's another pregnancy marker -but, preemies are very strong little guys. Also, don't worry about size. My daughter came out at 4 lbs 11 oz and had neighbors in the NICU that were much smaller. Many of them went home before she did! She stayed for a little over a month and just celebrated her 2nd birthday. She's in perfect health 94% for height! Best wishes, keep us updated, and happy thoughts. Once baby comes, remember to ask about kangaroo care (in the NICU) and pump, pump, PUMP (if you're planning on breastfeeding). For now, rest and think positive!
