Im in the hospital

     Just like they say about after having  WLS listen to your body. I almost thought I was over reacting and didn't go. I would have had a very little gut sitting in the NICU right now. I was already 2 cm dilated and crevix shorten by the time I arrived. But they stopped labor friday night . They aren't sure why I went into to labor. I am guessing the history of two other pre term ia probably likley. I guess my amniotic fluid level is high also and the pressure on my cervix was causing it to dilated. I won't know until I see the Peri. Monday. But for know everything is good.

     I mostly just read what everyone else says on here but I thought it was worth letting the first time moms know why I even went to be seen. I was having lower back pain and mild ;period crampimg. Don't get me wrong I have back pain all the time like everyother pregnant women bu****ch out if the pain feels just a little different. It wasn't until I got to the hospital after the 45 min car ride that I started to feel contrax.

     Well. wish mr luck I need to keep baking for another 4 weeks at least. I already got the steriod shot for lung maturation just in case next time they can't stop it. But I'll keep ya'll posted.

I am glad you made it to the hospital in time and the labor stopped. I hope you get to bake a little longer.

I'm glad the drs were able to stop the labor...and that you got there in time.  I hope your little one keeps on baking as long as possible.

Good luck!

I am so glad you made it to the hospital in time for them to stop your labor.  I had a 31 weeker, and he is 8 years old and fine now, other than being a little on the small side for his age.  If you can make it to 36 weeks that would be awesome...but even at 32 weeks they give a fairly high survival rate at around 85%.  My 31 weeker came out breathing and screaming on his own.  Unfortunately they put CPAP on him (forced air into their lungs) and they blew a hole in one of his lungs...if they had left that off of him, he would have never have to be intubated and have chest tubes and everything they do with a collapsed lung.  He still got to come home at 6 weeks old...he was just tiny still, not even 5 pounds.  Just stay resting, and do what the doctor says, and you should do great.  I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers!

Good luck...I hope he continues to bake for you...Stacey

Thanks for your replies. I see I misspelled somethings hope you get the jist of it. Hard to see when they will only let you recline 

Sorry you are in the hosptial, but I'm glad you went in.   Noah was in the NICU for 5 days and it isn't fun at all!  I'll be praying that you can continue baking at least another 4 weeks!
