Update on Little Thomas and me!!! please send your prayers!!

Hi Girls!!

I know my friend posted an update for me last night, but i was able to get my laptop here at the hospital so i finally have something to do!!!

well, i took your encouragement and called my dr at around 11 am on sunday. just to be perfectly clear i had no desire to go to that wedding if i knew it was jeopardizing my baby nor did i feel that the wedding was more important than my baby obviously, but if it was nothing i didnt want to ruin the wedding since dh was in the bridal party and he was not ok with going to the wedding w/o me.
anyway i asked the dr if i could go to the hospital at around 6 that night since i was not leaking, but just nervous. she recommended that i go in right away just to get checked out so i obviously did that. dh finally agreed to go to the wedding and my mom and sister took me to L&D. I honestly thought I would be in and out in a few hours...i had no clue what i was in store for!!!

as my friend posted, they did an internal and found that my water did not break, however, they were shocked to discover that i was 60% effaced and 2 cm dilated. by the time my dr came to check me later that afternoon, i had gone to 80% effaced and 3 cm dilated. i could not believe it since i felt no contractions whatsoever!! anyway, i was given steroids to develop the baby's lungs in case i went into pre-term labor. when the resident checked me again that night he found that i was 90% effaced and 3 1/2-4 cm dilated!!! so they started me on meds to stop the contractions (that i am not feeling LOL)!!! i havent had any internals since bc the dr dont want to be prying around too much and opening me up any more. the fetal monitors show no big contractions and i am no longer cramping thanks to the meds. however, i can only take the meds until sunday so who know what will happen after that! all i can say is thank goodness for my urinary incontinence bc i would have never known any of this!!! isnt it amazing how things work out???

please pray that little thomas stays safely inside my belly for at least another couple weeks!!!! i am now on strict bed rest and hopefully will be able to leave the hospital tomorrow. however, like i told my dr, if they think that its safest for me to stay here, obviously my comfort is not the priority. i told them to do whatever they think is best for my tommy!!!

thanks again girls for all your support!!!

ill keep u updated!!!

ETA: I am 33 wks and 2 days as of today!
