Preterm labor at 33 weeks.

Raeanna

Baby boy decided to try and make his debut way too early. After 6 hours of absolutely brutal back contractions (complete with puking and diarrhea...yay) that were almost constant the doctors were able to get my preterm labor under control luckily.

I go back in tonight for more monitoring part 2 of of a steroid shot to help develop baby's lungs in case he does come early, I also get the answer on whether I need to be on bed rest or not. I am on bedrest for today.

Thoughts and prayers would really be appreciated. My last baby was a 36 week old preemie and had a NICU stay and if this baby comes before 36 weeks it is a guaranteed NICU stay and I really hope I don't have to do that again. I am so scared and feel so defeated that my body is doing this..
