stuck in L&D and can't go home (UPDATE #2)

UPDATE 2: I'm home!!! I got the second shot of steroids and my FFN thankfully came back negative. I'm still contracting, but not enough that I need to stay. They wouldn't give me mag sulfate because of the side effects. I'm on Procardia instead and modified bedrest from now until I deliver. No more work for me and no more lifting and chasing DS. The nurses and doctors at South Nassau were wonderful as usual, and a few of them remembered me from having DS there last year! The number of women screaming in L&D despite getting their epidurals did make me nervous though Chat Icon

----------------------
UPDATE: Still in L&D and I got steroids for the baby's lungs. I was contracting all night so they won't transfer me to antepartum yet...ugh. I wish I could see DS...it's hard not being around him! Thanks for the well wishes!

-----------------------
I came to get checked out for a spotting issue this morning and instead they're keeping me at a minimum of 24-48 hours because I won't stop contracting even with the meds Chat Icon I hope they'll stop soon...30 weeks is too soon for my little girl to be born!

I had a similar issue with DS, but the terb pills worked then. I'm not sure what they're going to do with me.

Do they have you on magnesium sulfate? This happened to me last pregnancy, I went in at 30 1/2 weeks and it took them awhile to calm down the contractions. I was on the magnesium sulfate (yuck) and got the steroid shots. I was sent home on terbutaline (pump) and went another 6 weeks. Wishing you all the best!! Chat Icon
