I'm stuck on bed/couch rest now, with a constant dosage of 80mg of Nifedipine throughout the day, plus boosters of 10mg quick release Nifedipine to stop the ctx when I get them in runs. I had a pretty rough night with them last night 1 1/2 hours and they were just on top of each other, it was hard because I was lying down through them which feels like it is the complete wrong thing to do IYKWIM, but I felt that if I walked or rocked through them that it could encourage things to move. So have been feeling pretty sore and sorry for myself this morning, and hoping that tonight will be a better night, I had to have another booster this morning, but doing ok atm this afternoon with them much more spread out.
I thought that it was just Flicker moving and doing a big looooong stretch, so I am sure you can imagine my surprise when the CTG was recording ctx, and inbetween just going nuts because of my uterus being so irritated at least though know I now and we can get them under control.
My cervix was 3.4cm, but there was a bubble where it has opened which is 0.7cm, but no funnelling, so got a good 2.7cm, which is why I am not game to put any pressure on it.
A few personals while I can..
