Just an update on me. I went in on sunday the 7th to the L&D b/c i had been contracting the night before and wanted to make sure that everything was fine which it was.I was still 1cm dilated. I had my 28week appt on on wed the 10th and i was still having bad cramping and pressure and she asked if i wanted to get checked and i said yes. So she checked me and just had a bad look on her face and said i was 3cm dilated. She sent me straight to the L&D where i wasnt contracting and didnt know why i had to go. But they started me on the mag drip anyways and put me on the monitors. I did start contracting after a while so they decided to send me back to the hospital that is 2hrs away. On the way there which was a 45min flight i had contracted 13times. They got me set up there and finally the contractions tapered off and stopped. I didnt progress anymore than the 3cm's but at 28weeks, thats pretty bad. They did tests and u/s and all that. They didnt want me to come home at all. they wanted to keep me until 32 weeks but i have my kids at home and frankly, my DH isnt the best caregiver and all of kids to handle for a guy. I havent seen them the whole time i was there which was 8 days. I spent my birthday in there(13th) and missed my babies 2nd birthday on the 16th. I was sooo sad to not be there with her. The best thing about it is that the baby is still inside me. I had an FFN test done yesterday which was neg. At 28w3ds she wiehged a whopping 3lbs4ozs which is huge for her gestation. If i make it to 32weeks i wont have to be transferred again, my hospital has a secondary NICU that she will stay in. They finally put me on bedrest. I got another round of steriods for her lungs so she should be all set with thoughs.

Goodness me what a week youve had. Glad that bubba is still staying put. Hopefully thats where she will stay for a bit longer. Thinking of you.

Aww sorry to hear you've been having a rough time. Hopefully she'l stay in there a bit longer for you. Get lots of rest hun

Thank you ladies. I am trying to take it easy. When you havent seen your kids in so long, you just want to play with them and they you but they dont understand that i cant get up and bounce around with them right now. My 4yr old came running up and tried to bounce on my tummy and i kinda got worried and yelled stop before she could and it just scared her and she ran off. i had to get up and say i was sorry to her. I didnt mean to sound horrid but i was afraid. It was like she was jumping into a pool and about to do a cannon ball on my stomach. After not walking for 8 days only allowed to go to the restroom, I am quite worn out just walking to the kitchen and restroom and bed. I had a lot of pressure down there, i was afraid to go #2 thinking i might push on something it was that painful.
