Hi Anna, I had both of my little ones prematurely too (although admittedly much further along that you are now- 33 and 35wks). I am currently pregnant with baby number 3 and hoping for a longer preg this time! Who would have ever thought someone would say that, right?
I just wanted you to know that you are in my thoughts and prayers. Keep us updated on how you and Connor are doing!

dear baby connor,
stay put for a little while longer. Your mommy is not ready to see your little angel face yet. Stay where it is warm and you have an endless amount of food! I will pray for both you and your mommy. Hang in there buddy

Hi! I'm glad that you are hanging in there! One of my really close friends went through a similar ordeal. She ended up having her daughter at 25 weeks after being in the hospital for 2 weeks, she was 1lb 12 oz. She actually came out kicking and screaming and did great! She's 8 months old now and weighs about 15 pounds. =) I hope you and your little boy continue to do well so he can bake a bit longer!

I hope you are able to pull through! It's not fun having your legs elevated to ease the pressure off the cervix but i'm sure you will stick it out! I went in labor with my first at 33weeks and was in labor for 4 days...actual labor not braxton hicks! UGH!!! It was all back labor and they stopped it for 4 days and then sent me home saying that's all they could do as they gave me the max for meds to stop labor...he never came on his own. I was in so much pain after those 4 days i begged to be induced! At 39weeks 4 days, i was induced and i was so thankful! It only took 8 hours...but considering the first 4 days i would hope it wasn't long!LOL My son is now 2.5yrs and very healthy!

I had no problems with my second child during birth or labor and she too was induced and it was only 2 hours,awesome!LOL She had sleep apnea though and gave us a scare when she was 3 weeks and stopped breathing for a bit. Worst day of my life!

The hospital is by far the best place for you right now although i'm sure you wish you were home doing normal things but think of what you will be going home with! Totally worth it!! Are they going to keep him in as long as possible or are they going to go ahead at 25weeks?

I'll be thinking of you! Keep updates on that little one!!
