We're home again. I'm still contracting more than most women in labor, but a lot less than earlier. Fortunately, I still didn't dialate anymore and once again did well on the test that predicts labor in the next two weeks. That means, short of my water breaking, I will NOT need steroids for the baby's lungs.
Contractions are shown on a meter at the hospital, ranging from 0 to 12. I had several between 8 and 10. Ouch. In between, I had tons of others between 4 and 8.
On the way to the hospital, all the roads were flooded and we had to drive around for an hour to get there. I really thought I would have to get a police escort.
Thanks for the thoughts and prayers. So far, so good.
Etcetera.
so relieved to hear everything is 'ok'.
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear you all were able to keep baby cooking a little longer. Hugs!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad baby has decided he still doesn't want to come out! Yeah!
ReplyDeleteHang in there.
ReplyDeleteoh man! I am sorry that this is happening to you. Good thing you weren't in labor. A hour to get to the hospital! You might of had a road side baby.
ReplyDeleteMaybe all these contractions will help you have a fast and smooth delivery at the RIGHT TIME! Not yet. Stay in there little one.
I am so glad that you won't need the shot for baby's lungs
(((HUGS)))
This must be so frustrating for me. Maybe it was from stress? Baby is keeping you on your toes...
