Was in Labor And Delivery for the last two days
August 21, 2008
I went in for my U/S with the peri on tuesday and my cervix had shorten and i was contracting. The doctor checked me and cervix was still closed. Baby A was laying her head right on my cervix. And that is why i have been feeling so much pressure over the weekend. I culd barley walk. So the gave me a terb. shot and then gave me the terb every 6 hours from there..and D/C me home with strick bed rest instead of partialI had two beta meth shots which are the steroids to mature their lungs..did a FTN this morning and was negative so that is good. the only problem that i am having now is from the terb and it is giving me bad headaches and makes me shaky after i take it for about 2 hours but that is fine..I hope all is well with everyone..Oh the babies are 2 pounds and 13 ounces so they are on schedule so hopefully everything will go well the doc said i responded very well to the terb so it is working to stop my contractions and the pressure is gone..the babies look good on monitor and heart beats are excellent. doc said babies look very well..Take care
Wow summer, that must have been scary. but so glad the ftn came back negative. will they test you again any time soon? how long will you have to take the terbutaline (don't know if i spelled that right)?
definitely you need to be on strict bedrest and don't do ANYTHING that will put you into labor.
are the headaches any better?

thanks Liane I am hoping so too..at least the FTN came back negative so that means that i am not gonna go into labor soon..The only thing that i am concerned about now is the leg pain and swelling that i am having since i have been on bed rest for the last week almost..i have some ted hose that i wear for 12 hous a day that helps a little..but sometimes i can not even lift my legs..LOL..10 more weeks thank the lord!! Can't wait to meet these little girls..

OMG sweetie I was wondering where you had been...glad things are ok, and stay in that bed :)
Glad you responded so well to the meds, sorry they are making you yucky feeling. I dont feel well either right now if that helps. I did the 1 hour glucose screening today and that darn drink....UGH has made me so ill.
We love ya sweetie and want those girls to hold on tight for a little while longer!
