Anyone have experience with Terbutaline?

Traci • South Carolina

Saturday I wasnt feeling good been having Braxton Hicks for months now. But Saturday night wasnt feeling good and didn't sleep much. Sunday (yesterday ) it got worst, by afternoon i was having sever cramps and contractions to the point i was having to stop and lean over. I finally called my OBGYN office and the doc on call said to go to L&D; and get checked. Once we got kids settled with my parents we headed up. I knew i was having them but didnt think i was having as many as i was or frequent. I was a little dehydrated so drank some water and was monitored. Nurse came in to check see if i was dilated and i was confused as what she said and she left. Different nurse came in and said dr said to give me a shot (Terbutaline) to stop the contractions. Im 35W today. See how that helped then check me again. 45 to an hour minutes later nurse came in to check on me asked if the shot had helped which at that point it had and said someone would come check me again. When she checked me she said im a fingertip dilated and soft, so no change from before. By time i went home i had 2 contractiona but very mild. She said stay hydrated ans keep my apt for Friday and if the contractions start up again call the office. Ive had quite a few today but all over the place and not to bad. Has anyone had the shot n it worked but labor start again? ? what experience dud you have? I have my c section scheduled for Oct 9th so im nervous about labor coming.
