I'm having contractions, which is soooo not good. I'm exactly 29 weeks today, and I am so scared. I don't think I can do this. I'll keep you updated once I find out what's going on.

This isn't natalie, this is her aunt. She asked me to update for her.
The contractions weren't braxton hicks, they were the real deal. The doctors are trying their best to stop them, and she's got an iv drip of magnesium sulfate and steroids to speed up the development of olivia's lungs.
I'm not sure what this next part means, but she said she was probably going to use brooklyn or go back to obsessive compulsive disorder and use charlotte.
I'll relay your well-wishes back to natalie, and try to keep you girls updated.

Good luck hun - it is scary but 28 weeks is not too early as far as things go. And also - preemie baby girls do better than preemie baby boys for some reason, no-one knows why but it's a fact all the hospitals are in on.

Hugs, carrie xx
