How scary for you..hope the little one stays tucked up tight for another couple of months at least!
Sorry about your treatment at the hospital too...you would think they would be trying anything and everything to stop labour whether they consider it at a "viable" gestation or not, and thumbs down to the maternity ward for being "too busy"...they should never be too busy for a patient that needs medical care!
Look after yourself, and I hope the little tacker stays in there!
Oh wow how frightening. Glad it's all eased up and he stayed put!
My OB suspects a tummy bug put me into prem labour with DD. I was throwing up all the night before and couldn't really tell the difference between a tightening and stomach cramps. Went to see him because I just felt so ill and dehydrated and went into labour.. they couldn't stop it. So who knows if it was the tummy bug or if she was on her way anyway and the vomiting was a prelabour thing.
So glad it all stopped! So sorry they were so insensitive.
Good luck for the rest of your pregnancy. I hope he hangs around for a good 18 or so more weeks
I had gastro (vomitting and all) at 20wks with Ds2. I came down with it at about 1pm and by 5pm when Dh got home I was nearly unconcious and so dehydrated it took 3 nurses and 45min to get an IV in. I was fine after a day or two; but the day after I came home I went into labour. We got asked the most horrid questions a parent could ever be asked because they didnt think he would stay in there. Managed to stop it though and I went home. Ended up being back in 6 times, on bedrest and medication to stop contractions til 35wks, 3cm dialated from 33wks.
He got kicked out at 37+6! So hang in there, he is proof that they can keep cooking long enough to come out healthy after early labour scares! The OB who delivered him thinks he's a miracle lol I certainly hope it doesnt keep happening for you because it was such an awful experience for me.
