32 Weeks

Last Saturday I was 32 weeks. (Today I'm 33 weeks) 

Monday Daddy had surgery and stayed home all week. 

Thursday I went to the doctor for my check with my OB. On the way there I started having contractions that wouldn't stop. As I was signing in the ladies noticed that I was in pain and called my doctor's nurse to come get me. She took me back to a room, checked my blood pressure, and took me to a special room to hook me up to the monitors to see about the contractions. 

I stayed on the machine for 20 minutes. When she came back she said I needed to go to Labor and Delivery for observation. When I've had contractions before they've given me a shot to stop them but this time it didn't work. The contractions wouldn't stop. So I had to stay the night. Along with the shots to stop the contractions they gave me steroid shots to help develop Reese's lungs in case I started dilating. So every hour for 4 hours I got a shot in my arm, then every 2 hours, then every 4 hours. Finally around 2:30 yesterday they switched to oral meds to stop the contractions. 

I was able to go home this morning just in time for my baby shower!
