Another Trip to Labor & Delivery

Well we were in for another little adventure last night. I was feeling crampy much of yesterday but really didn't think much of it, par for the course these days :) By the time I picked Alli up and we got home, I was having pretty painful contractions every 5-10 minutes and they just felt different. My OB had warned me that I needed to be cautious and call if anything changed so after dealing with it for a couple of hours (Alli was such a sweetheart and kept giving me hugs and kisses to help with the "boo boo") I called the doc after putting Alli to bed. We spent a couple of hours in L&D hooked up to lots of machines that verified I was indeed having contractions. Luckily, the test was negative, reassuring us that it is highly unlikely I will give birth in the next two weeks. We finally got home a little before midnight and were both exhausted. I had a follow-up with my doc this morning. We discussed options to stop or at least lessen the contractions but unforutnately, because of my low blood pressure and tachycardia, I really cannot take any of the medications so I get to rest, drink fluids and pray!!! I still have a sneaking suspicion that despite all of these little scares, the little guy is just going to stay put until the scheduled c-section ;-)
