And its noooo fun!!

All week I had contractions that would come and go. I was very confident that they were actual contractions rather than bh, I talked to my doc about then on wednesday when I went in and he didnt seem concerned just told me if I have more than 6 in an hour I need to go in. Well friday night after dinner (5.30pm) I started having them regularly every 15 minutes. At dinner I had, had 3 glasses of water so I pretty much KNEW I couldnt be dehydrated but I kept drinking anyways. By 8pm I was having them every 7 minutes, so I called on call and they told me to come right in. I wasnt too thrilled bc of what happened last time, but I went in. My experience this time was MUCH better!

They got me hooked up and I was having contractions, so they started an IV, I told them I had 5 glasses of water in the past 3 hours, butt they insited just in case I was somehow dehydrated. I had never had an IV and I really honestly hope to never have another one!! They checked me and I wasnt dialated but I am 50% effaced, no one was concerned about that..but it does worry me a little. By the time the first bag of IV was all gone my contactions were just about 3 1/2- 4 minutes apart and stronger than when they first started.

So they gave me a shot of terbuline (cant spell it). It was horrible I felt soooo drugged up. My heart was racing, I was so shakie, and then I felt like my mind was in slow motion but my body was on top speed. So Im now home on bedrest. Its not fun, but Ill do it for Kennedi!!

I see my doc tomorrow, Im not sure what hes gonna wanna do..but Ill update tomorrow!

I feel for you, I imagine bedrest has got to be pretty awful! What is up with our grad babies trying to make surprise appearances? Stay put Kennedi!

Sadly I do have a labtop but its not wireless..Im working on getting a card so I can be on more. Ive worked a deal with my mom if I stay put on the computer for at least an hour and then go lay down for over an hour Im allowed to be once a day Its no fun, but its ok for now.

Im not on any pills I only got the one dose of terb, I go see my doc today at some point to see what he wants to continue doing. I had contractions over the weekend. Not a ton but considering all Im doing is sitting on my butt all day long it worries me. I feel like I shouldnt be having any.

Alice I was at Unity, and I had some awesome nurses this time, thankfully!!

I was there so many times! It completely sucked but a necessary evil. The things we mommies do...
