Waiting games....

So I had another doctor appointment today. 33 weeks tomorrow. Yeah gotta love weekly's! Anyway, once again they hooked me up to the monitor. Caught me on a good day, contractions were almost non-existent for the hour they had me connected. Of course now that I am at home they are back! She also didn't move a whole lot during that time. I think we are both exhausted already from all this.

They checked my cervix and I am definitely thinning out. They did a fFN while they we down there. Got a call about 20 minutes ago or so that said results were positive. Doc wants you to call us if ANYTHING changes about this pregnancy. Your contractions change, your pain changes, she seems like she is moving less, you start getting worse headaches, you are leaking more fluids than you have over the past two days, ANYTHING at all. If anything changes they are going to bring me in and recheck my cervix. If my cervix starts dilating at all they are going to take the next step, which I am assuming is induction.

They said based on my current symptoms and history and the results from the fFN, I have a better than 1 in 6 chance of delivering in the next two weeks.

And that ladies is my story and I am sticking to it!

I was hoping you'd post an update.  You need to take it easy.  My OB says those FFN tests are very accurate.  Please let people help you out so that you can keep the baby in as long as possible.  Please keep us updated.

Hopefully contractions will slow down and you can relax for a few more weeks.

Wow your OB docs are being nicer to you!! LOL They have stopped mine 3 times now and even with drugs to mature lungs. They said they wouldnt stop them though after the 19th of dec.

I am wanting him out but i think since they have stopped them now he wont come on his own and they wont induce me so if i dont go into labor i get a c section. I still think they are jinxing me!!

Let that little baby bake as long as possible!!
