Hi Georgi, just wanted to pop in and wish you all the best. All that positive thinking and great care has gotten you to this point and I hope the next 5 days goes just as well.
Bub is measuring a great size, and the longer he can stay put the more weight he will put on, it's a bit slower on the outside!
I am so glad they were able to stop your labour, when my waters broke and we got to the hospital 1.5 hours later (had a lot of trouble getting in to a hospital that night and we weren't worried as contractions didn't start until 45 mintues after waters had broken)!! I was 7-8cm dialated and contractions 3 min appart so no going back for me!!
But all has worked out really well, bubs is doing great, 11 days in SC, they can be real fighters, everyday inside counts.
The MW's were great, teaching me how to hand express, then moving onto the pump, every drop counts, I was almost in tears if I spilt a drop
There is also plenty of support online for mums with premmies, it can be a pretty stressful time, as it can be halpful chatting to mums who have been through the same thing and understand the differences in milestones, can give you info on what you may expect etc. PM me if you need to chat or any of the links.
Goodluck and prove them all wrong!!

: Fixed a few mistakes!
That's a shame the meeting was cancelled, but so good you got to have a chat with the other lady in there! And she only lives 10mins from you!
Perhaps you'll see her again at Pindara when you have your little man there.....
Keep up the great work!!
What did the MW's say about using a vaporiser?? Trust me, it's the best thing for my nose....
ps I'll have to go baby shopping without you this weekend hehe
