Back from the hospital....

nikkybaby · Jan 18th, 2008, 20:32 PM

Went in last night with braxton hicks again. They said that they were 2-3 minutes apart, so they gave me an injection and had to do a test. They basically said that if its negative, there is no way I would go into premature labor within the next two weeks, but if its positive, there is a one in seven chance that I could. Guess what it came out as....positive. So I had to stay there and be monitored all day long

. They finally sent me home, because I wasn't having any contractions continuously. Hopefully everything continues to go okay. Can't have sex tho, which kinda sucks...but whatever keeps him in there.

So how was everyone elses night??????

Aww hon, I'm sorry your day wasen't good. 1 in 7 is still pretty good though that you might not go into labor. I hope he decides to stay in there as long as possible but if you do go into labor, at your stage I'm sure the baby would be just fine. Might have to stay at the hospital for a bit but not for long. Drink lots of water, I heard that helps minimize BH's. Get lots of rest and I hope you start feeling better soon hon

OOh, I know thats scary. Get lots of rest, and drink lots of fluid, and I'm sure that things will be ok. Remember you have my # if anything happens.

You & your little man will be in my thoughts.
