threatened preterm labour
I went into labour on wednesday at 31+4 wks. Luckily waters didnt go so drs managed to stop labour. Ive had 2 lots of steroids to mature his lungs. Been taken off the tablets to stop labour (nefedipine) now that steroids have had time to work.
Luckily we had some warning this time as with my dd it happened the other way. My waters went then contractions started and i delivered 3 hrs later at 32+5.
So girls make sure you get your bags packed. Aftrr dd ive had mine packed since 28wks.

Good luck and hope we don't hear your birth announcement for a while yet.
Do they know why you went early both times? No one seems to know.why i am. I wonder if its cos im small im around 5ft 1 and small built. I have a short body and longer legs so wonder if my babies just run out of room
Glad to hear that you are still there and the baby is staying put. Its mad that we don't have the reason. I suppose its just our bodies.
Dr also found my cervix to be very anterior which i had to google. Does sound like my body is ready for the off any time. I know it sounds daft and selfish but i just wish that if he is coming early that he would just come now rather than starting and stopping. Every backache, or niggle i get im wondering if this is it. Everytime im about to stand up i wonder if my waters are going to go. Cant imagine going on like this for potentially another 9 wks if i went over.
