Hang in there honey! I keep thinking about you on a good day and I've been oot all weekend and just saw this. You've done a wonderful job cooking those babies so far and you're still doing great.
T&Ps for you, snd1231! You are such a tough cookie! So glad that you are in good hands at your hospital that DH is a rock star. Let's keep those little ones cooking!
Thanks for the support and encouragement ladies. It seriously means so much to me.
Great latest update--
Ladies you are all amazing. Thank you so much for all your amazing support.
Latest update!
Well contractions have mellowed out majorly. Just having one here and there and it's very short and mild. They decided not to do another cervical check so that we don't irritate things any further and feel confident I have not progressed any further, which I agree with. If all things continue we will get my second steroid shot in the next few minutes and take all monitors off and stop magnesium and hopefully all things will stay normal. If they do I get to move up to antepardem floor where I can eat and drink again! I will most likely be there until I deliver which I'm perfectly ok with. Overall a great update! I feel so relieved.

Good news update. My contractions pretty much stopped and they were able to stop the magnesium and all other Iv meds and take out my catheder. They gave my second steroid shot. Still didn't have any spikes so they let me move to the antepardem floor around 1am! I started having a bad rash from the steroid shot so I got some benedryl and a bag of chips and eventually crashed. I was able to sleep 5 hours uninterrupted woo hoo!!
Doctors and nurses did their rounds this morning and they are going to allow me to get up and use the bathroom on my own no cath, take a shower in a little with supervision as my bp is bottomed out (90/50), and eat real food!!! The nurse said at the minimum I would be here until at least Thursday if I have no contractions or complications. If I have any I have to stay longer. If they continue to behave I get to go home on strict bed rest. We are all hopeful that this means we get at least a few more days if not weeks with the babies still cooking! Thanks for all the support and prayers ladies.

Oh boy - I missed it all! I've been MIA for a bit sorry about that....
snd1231, thoughts and prayers to you that things continue to improve for you and those 3 precious babies! I'm sorry you have had to go through all this but it looks like they have things under control for now.
No news guys which I'm super thankful for. No notesble contractions. Still have a few small ones but they feel like my normal level and Drs and nurses are happy with that. I have been able to eat a little (no appetite) drink tons and pee as well as take a shower which was incredible! The only thing I'm hooked to is a heart monitor since I'm having a little issue with my heart but they aren't too concerned for now. Tomorrow I'm hoping to get a better game plan. My MFM has been on vacation for all of this but he has been in steady contact with the MFM here on all and he promises he will come see me when he gets back. I have a feeling my MFM doesn't want me leaving here until babies are born. Honestly I'm ok with that as long as it stays relaxed like this on the antepardem floor. I can bring any food I want have a fridge, micro, water and ice machine etc and only have to do vitals about 2x at night and about 4x during the day. So I'm getting a lot of rest and feel great knowing if anything happens we are in a great place. Sorry for my rambling.
