28 week check up

PrairieMom wrote: Well, I had another appt this morning and he checked me again. apparently my cervix is behaving its self now, and even tho I am still having some contractions he thinks its okay to continue to work since I don't seem to be progressing this week. He wants me to continue what i am doing and come back again in 2 weeks. By that time I will be 30 weeks, and feel a lot better about this situation. Every day she stays put she will be that much healtier and stronger!
Now just watch, after all this, how much ya bet I have to be induced at 42 weeks?!
So, I am staying on the meds, and taking it a little easy. I'm so relieved I escaped bed rest for at least 2 more weeks!

Well, us girls are known to be fickle!

Great news, now you can really enjoy your girl time this weekend!

MyLuvBugs replied: That's wonderful news!!!! I'm so glad that you both are doing well. I can't believe you're already at 28 weeks. Almost there!!

PrairieMom replied:
no doubt! The boy was born at 36 1/2 weeks, so if I keep up the trend I have about 8 weeks to go! This is really flying by!

I am glad all seems to be under control for now...keep that girl in there and I can tell you first hand that the girls are stubborn, I started with preterm contractions, etc. got pulled out of work at 28 weeks and ended up being induced at 42 weeks so don't be surprised but I would much prefer late than the issues that can come with early....

PrairieMom replied: I'm aiming for Memorial Day. i will be 37 1/2 weeks by then, Iam scheduled to work nights that weekend, so I will be extra tired that monday, so it would just figure that I would have to labor that day!

Mommy2Isabella replied: Glad your cervix is behaving ... ! Lucky you .. escaping bed rest and all ... I am on it until the end ... BUT , it is for the best!! So have a little fun for me!

PrairieMom replied: I can't imagine! Every day that passes is a day that this baby is stronger. I think I will feel lots better after I am 30 weeks.
