Back in again
Quick post since I'm back in the hospital. Contractions started to really pick up Sunday night. We went to triage to have things checked out, got some terbutaline that did nothing. Repeat Terbutaline just seemed to make my uterus laugh even more. Started on some additional increased Procardia and further monitoring and was admitted. Baby Spot is doing great on ultrasound thank heavens, and while being monitored. No signs of any distress. Only unsettling thing is that they have me NPO and a bag of Mag Sulfate at my bedside that they're discussing using. Just hanging tight for now, and my cervix seems to want to hang tight as much as possible too. Ahhh, never a dull moment, right?

Hang in there,honey. Mrs.Ute, Please Cooperate, I will get you some Ice cream and another else you want or need.
Sara - you can do it! Let's set a goal of September 21st! Okay, and then when you get to that day, you can set another goal. I'm so glad to hear that Spot is doing well!
Sorry you're back in there and they're contemplating the mag. But little Spot's doing well and that's all that matters. I'll keep you guys in my thoughts!
Saying a prayer for you right now. Hang in their Spot!! Keep proving them wrong Sara!!
*HUGS*
Ah no! Certainly glad to hear little Spot is doing well. Hopefully things settle down for you.
maybe it was the exhausting task of typing the 100 things post? ha ha. hopefully that made you smile! sending love and hugs...hang in there spot!!
Hang in there my friend... HUGS!!!! 30 weeks, that is our goal !!!!!!!! YOU CAN DO IT!
Mag. sulfate.....yuck! I hope you don't have to take it.
Glad to hear that Spot is doing well and not under any stress.
Uterus, start relaxing and take it easy! You've got a long road ahead of you still!
I'm glad to hear that Spot is doing well. Hang in there girls! I'm definitely keeping you in my prayers and thinking about you!
Thinking and praying for you all!!
Oh no! Just hang in there...you're doing great. You are in my prayers.
Hang in there! Many hugs!
You're doing great, Sara! Hang tight little girl... you both are in my thoughts and prayers. I hope today is going better and I hope that you don't end up needing the mag (and if you do, I hope that it makes your uterus behave).
It was all the excitment of my birthday coming up wasn't it? I'm the one that's getting older, not you and Ute. So calm down there UTEY. :)
But, seriously, I can only imagine how frustrating it must be for you, knowing you have no control over the situation. As stupid as it may sound, just try to relax as much as you possibly can.
{{HUGS}}
Oh, Sara...I was just thinking about you and wondering when our next update would come. I'm so sorry you're back in the hospital, but it is the best place for both you and Spot. Hang in there.
I've heard that mag is rough stuff. You probably know better than me. But the prize is worth the battle...
I'll be thinking of you.
Oh sara! I'm sorry for all this trouble! I hope your ute does it's usual calming down.
Grr. I hope you get out of the hospital and back on the couch with your puppy as soon as possible! I've got my fingers crossed for you.
oh sara you are in my prayers
Oh man. I hope everything turned out ok -- keep us posted.
Saying my prayers that you and Spot have a long, long time left together. Like 5 months or so.
Sara,
Pulling for you and for Spot. Stay stong. *hugs*
Oh crap. I sending many positive thoughts and wishes that Mrs. Ute calms down soon. Hopefully without the Mag. Hang in there, you are in my thoughts.
Prayers and good wishes for you! I hope you got to forgo the mag sulfate! Hang in there.
Ah, Sara, I am so sorry.
I am praying for you... you tell that little girl Spot that she needs to stay put for now.
*hugs*
Bless your heart!!
Praying for you and Spot...
Hang in there, girl!
((HUGS))
Stay in Spot...in Damn Spot!!
I hope they stop all this commotion!!

Oh goodness...I'm so sorry you're in the hospital again. It sounds like, considering the circumstances, everything is still OK. Hopefully, Little Girl Spot will hold tight and let many more days pass before she makes her grand entrance. You're in my prayers!!
BTW that was a play on the MacBeth...out damn spot thing. I wasn't being fresh
Oh Goodness! Hope the contractions slow to a screeching halt. Glad to hear Spot and your cervix are doing well. HANG IN THERE!
Hang in there Spot--you still have more growing to do!!! Keeping all of you in my thoughts and prayers.
Oh, dear. Sorry to hear you're back, but relieved for spot. I spent 9 weeks on the Mag- frankly I thought the terbutaline was worse. Mag sucks at first but your body adjusts to it after a bit. At any rate, it stops contractions like nothing else, and that's the important thing! Good luck!
Praying for you and thinking of you, Sara! What is the next goal or week they want you to make it to?
Hang in there! All the "stay put" vibes coming to you that I can muster.
Hang in there!!! I hope the hospital visit can buy you many more weeks. But just take it day, by day - because each day is an achievement!
lots of love from my hospital bed to yours. and little baby hugs frm the roomie to spot.
thinking of you every day.

Geepers honey. Not at 25 weeks......You sound a LOT more together than I was when I was contracting so early.
You know I'm thinking of your little Spot and hoping like hell she hangs tight for at least a few more weeks,
J
Thinking of you and spot!!
