Hey girls. Called my ob and was sent to labor and delivery at hospital. After a few hours and 2 iv bags contractions weren't slowing but I wasn't dilating so they kinda left it up to me.... go home and deal with contractions until my appointment tmrw or take her now, but with gentle urging to wait. When I opted to wait, I had to talk them out of keeping me overnight ( almost in tears lol) They let me go home but had to promise to come back with any bleeding worsening contractions or water breaking. Hoping to get the thumbs up to continue procardia for another week. Thank you for the prayers guys. We will make it a little longer

Dandy it would be nice if they let you take that med until your c section. At least you have another appointment tomorrow so that will help a little.
Cronins that’s a great idea. Sounds like it will be fun :-)

Oh dandy!!! I am glad that you are home now. I hope that your ob lets you continue taking the medication to stop the contractions. It would be good to keep lo in a little while longer. Hugs sweetie!!!
As for me, last day of meds and then I wait for ovulation.

Last day of meds already Cronins!?! Maybe this week has gone by quicker than I thought. Lol lucky I sure hope this doesn't happen to you!!!! Contractions are still the same. I have a few things that absolutely have to be done today but going to try to keep my feet up as much as possible and keep the water flowing. My appointment isnt untill 1:30 after I take lo to school. I will keep you two posted.

Good luck sweetie!!! Definitely thinking about you and praying for you and your sweet baby....

Feeling much better. Nothing to report from dr. She doesn't want me back on procardia, she said its time to come off it and let my body do its thing, but thinks I have a long way to go since Im not dilating. She said I have an irritable uterus. So we are just going to have to wait it out. Hopefully I dont have to many more episodes like that. Phew!

Glad your appointment went well today. I can see her point of letting nature take its course. You’re heading into week 37 so that is pretty safe for lo if she decides to come early. Fingers crossed that you will get get more episodes like the one you just had!

Stupid autocorrect lol. Praying that you will not get another episode like this last one.

Cronins this cycle is moving right along for you. You will be testing very soon.
Dandy I’m glad things are a little better. Hopefully she stays in a little while longer.
AFM, nothing new, one more work day this week :-) my feet and legs are so puffy my shoes are tight lol.

Thank you for the prayers Cronins. I knew what you meant. Lol. Bout time to break out those opks. I still miss testing, that probably sounds silly. Lol.
Lucky, poor girl. Swelling is no fun. Thank goodness I dont have much. Yay to some time off to kick those puppies up and do some relaxing.
Afm, feeling good still. So taking advantage of it and trying to get caught up on some house work. But just a bit. Dont wanna over do it. Now just to pass some time.
