Re: /NSSP: So. I wasn't going to post anything about this because it's so me me me, but Macharius Send a noteboard - 14/12/2011 06:52:26 PM
However, Tim and I are just such wonderful people that our baby wants to meet us earlier than planned, so I've now had three trips to hospital for possible pre-term labour. The first was at 24 weeks, the second at 27, and then I went into hospital again on Sunday at nearly 29 weeks.


This was never a problem for us: he didn't want to come out at all, even after three days of trying to induce labor after we'd passed the 40-week mark. Apparently, the first ones like to stay in longer so in light of that I am concerned for you that you've already had three pre-term potential-labors.

All of this is, of course, extremely stressful and induces much anxiety, but we're nearly at the magical 30-week stage so I'm starting to relax more. If baby does come early then it won't be so bad now.


"won't be so bad" isn't the same as "good"... I shall continue to be concerned for the next seven weeks. I'd even pray, if I was spiritual or religious.

I have loads of spare time


LOL, yeah, that won't last. *exhausted*

You have free time? I remember free time. Jacob - 14/12/2011 07:18:35 PM 1256 Views
I think it helps them grow more demanding. Rebekah - 14/12/2011 08:06:16 PM 1184 Views
I was born at 33 weeks. Avendesora - 14/12/2011 07:25:15 PM 1112 Views
33 weeks would be quite nice. Only just premature these days. Depending on size &c. Rebekah - 14/12/2011 08:07:29 PM 1185 Views
This is true for me as well. Nate - 15/12/2011 04:58:48 AM 1016 Views
So I guess having a baby rules out you being single again, eh? Dark Knight - 14/12/2011 08:24:15 PM 1129 Views

My sister had the exact same problem with her last (3rd) baby FalonDeathwatchGuard - 14/12/2011 09:22:49 PM 1146 Views
It's really comforting to hear other women's stories, actually. Rebekah - 15/12/2011 02:20:07 PM 1181 Views
Yup, the little one was born early FalonDeathwatchGuard - 15/12/2011 03:23:41 PM 1121 Views
Not sure about over there, but in the US it would be great for tax purposes to have the baby now. Tom - 14/12/2011 10:40:33 PM 1368 Views
It is pretty cool. I feel sorry for parents of early January babies... so close. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 14/12/2011 10:43:08 PM 538 Views
No such luck. They just date it from the day baby arrives. Rebekah - 15/12/2011 02:20:44 PM 1098 Views

Doesn't exactly sound like a dream situation. Stephen - 15/12/2011 12:13:34 AM 1110 Views
Indeed it isn't. Rebekah - 15/12/2011 02:22:21 PM 1149 Views

are you taking drugs for this? (hydroxyprogesterone caproate) Aeryn - 15/12/2011 01:53:20 PM 1159 Views
No. The doctors over here don't like to give those kinds of drugs. Rebekah - 15/12/2011 02:25:45 PM 1219 Views
I was in the hospital for pre-term labour at 28 weeks with my son... he came at the due date Helene - 15/12/2011 02:42:44 PM 1303 Views
