I have been in the hospital since Thursday with preterm labor...and I am not sure I will get to go home before my little girl is born :( I started having contractions Thursday evening that wouldn’t quit no matter what i tried so i went into l&d; and was immediately put on monitors to check baby. I was kept at a local hospital until Saturday night when they transferred me to a more advanced medical facility. I was given every medication they can give to stop the contractions but they didn’t work. I am still contracting but they are spaced out enough and weak enough now that I am able to at least get out of bed and walk around a bit. Everything seemed to be looking up until today when i was being monitored and baby girls heartrate kept dropping. Her heart rate has fallen below 100 a few times today and i am concerned she is stressed now. It’s so hard emotionally to be away from my family. My husband leaves every night to go home with our 2.5 year old son and 11 year old daughter. I just want to be able to be with my husband and kids during this time. There has been no talk of releasing me to be able to go home before she is born and after today I don’t know that there will be. I just pray my baby girl stays put until at least 30 weeks.

Update: I got to come home yesterday. It has been a very long week but I’m so thankful to be home with my family. Pray baby girl stays put. Thank you all f the support.
