Answer

I started having issues @ 28 weeks with my last. I didn't know I was contracting. My dr told me and admitted me to the hosp. Where they gave me magnesium and steroids. Luckily she stayed put til 35 weeks.

Answer

I didn't go into full blown preterm labor but i had preterm contractions that had to be stopped at 28 weeks. It was consistent Braxton hick like contractions that intensified in main. (Felt like a blood pressure cuff wrapping around my whole uterus and squeezing me) and lower back pain that radiated into my lower back. 
They were able to stop with with a medication (don't remember the name) and 2 iv fluid bags. 
No longer able go have sex, they think sex caused my preterm contractions.

Answer

I had my son at 30 weeks. My water just randomly broke for no reason. Day before it broke I was having contractions bad in my back. Thought they were just Braxton Hicks. Obviously not. Lol they put me on magnesium to stop labor and gave me steroid shots to help develop lungs. Stayed in hospital for 4 days and started labor again so they didn’t stop it. He had to stay in the NICU for 29 days! He’s now almost 3 and healthy as can be.

Answer

I had my son at 32 weeks my water just broke spontaneously. I got two rounds of steroid shots for his lungs they tried to stop him from coming but he was ready to come out. He stayed in the NICU for two weeks no issues breathing just needed to learn to suck/swallow. He’s now a very healthy 3 year old. I’m now 30 weeks pregnant with our second son and really hoping he stay in there till full term.
