Q: I Am Back!

Just had my appointment wednesday, I will be 34 weeks tomorrow. The baby is measuring a bit over 17 inches and about 5lbs. Turns out all those problems I was having in the beginning haven’t gone away. I have to see the doctor twice a week until I deliver because I am already dilated to 2 cms and 40-45% effaced. So they checked me into the hospital wednesday afternoon and they gave me mag. Sulfate to stop further dilation and gave me a low dose of gc to speed up her lung development. They discharged me from the hospital this morning and put me on bed rest, again! I am just praying that she stays in there for a while and that the sulfate works! How has everyone been?

Thanks I am trying to relax, but I am so worried about her! I still don't have any name ideas for her! I've just been calling her princess and baby girl! Lol she really needs to stay put for a while!
