yes they are

Hopefully my messages are understandable 😃

I'm feeling pretty loopy because of the shot I got for backpain.

The nurse was just in and said I'll receive another dose at 4pm. Sometime in the morning I'll be seen by a doctor. Nurse said my contractions are much less frequent.

@payitoffnow, I went with my first baby at 33 weeks and they gave me magnesium which stopped everything. I stayed in the hospital 2 days they also gave me 2 shots too help speed up baby lungs just in case baby was born. The magnesium did the job. I had my son at 37 weeks it would of been longer than that but I fell at 37 weeks and that put me in active labor.

@payitoffnow, yes I was admitted for a week....

@payitoffnow, yes it helps. honestly your 36 weeks, it would be ok to have your baby. if he/she can cook until 37-38 your fine. stay off your feet for a week.

I was pretty surprised to get admitted tonight.

Thank you for your story.

Magnesium is what they normally give to stop contractions. Makes your whole body seem hot!

@payitoffnow, due to this...now I am pregnant with my daughter. I get a weekly shot with her. this started at 16 weeks.

@christal1102, so it was successful for you? I'm 36 weeks. I don't know how long they'll want to give it to me.

@payitoffnow, I went into labor at 30 weeks with my son. even at 5 cm. I was given shots to stop it. he was born at 35 weeks. I was given pills to take to help & bed rest

I'm sorry if that doesn't make much sense. I'm sitting in this hospital bed, and my thoughts are going crazy. Anyone else's stories would be greatly appreciated.
