bedrest

Leah

Hi guys, I'm 21 weeks today. Cervix is shortened and having frequent contractions. I spent 3 days in the hospital, tried tocolytics (didn't work), now on vaginal progesterone and bedrest at home. They plan to monitor my cervix every 2 weeks and I've never felt more helpless in my life. I seem to have the least frequent contractions on my left side but am having a ton of hip pain from being in that position so long. I'm afraid of getting a bed sore. Is there anyone else going through this? How do you stay calm and comfortable?
