Why are they stopping my labor??

Whitney • Mama to a beautiful mini me (2/19/09) and perfect B/G twins (4/17/20).

I’m 36w 6d with twins and have been in L&D for 7 hours now while they monitored my contractions (now 3 minutes apart). Both my babies are breech so I know I’ll need a c-section. My cervix hasn’t dilated since I’ve been here. They gave me a narcotic to try to stop contractions—that didn’t work. Now they’re giving me another shot to stop them. Um—I’m a day short of 37weeks. Why can’t I just have my babies?!?!
