33 weeks

It has been an interesting week! Sunday night we went to the Birth Center to make sure my water did not break, because I felt like I was leaking. Well to our surprise I was having regular contractions that I wasn't feeling. They gave me some awful med's to stop the contractions which seemed to work, and then took a test called a fetal fibrinectin test. What it means is if its negative you are safe from going into labor for at least 7 days. Well mine came back positive, which means I have about a 30% chance of going into labor in the next 7-14 days. They talked about steroid shots for his lungs and even considered keeping me over night. My cervix was still closed and thick so he decided to let me go home and wait on the steroids. We have an appt with a Maternal Fetal Specialist tomorrow morning where we will most likely be getting an ultrasound to see the length of my cervix. The specialist wants us to get the steroid shots regardless of the cervix length. However they do not give the shot if you are 34 weeks or after. We have 6 days until we are 34 weeks so we are on the fence. We are leaning towards not getting them because we feel that God is not going to let Judah come if hes not ready. We trust him 100% with our little guy. I also have a UTI which can cause contractions so hopefully treating that will help and stop the contractions. We would like for him to stay put till at least 36 weeks. Keep us in your prayers, and we will see you all at the baby shower!
