Well this came at the worst time ever... Kenny's brother and family came into town Saturday and Friday morning I woke up not feeling very well. I started have contractions, so I called the Dr. he said to get into labor and delivery right away. When I got there my contractions were a minute apart and I was dilated to a finger tip. They started to give me shots to stop the contractions, which these shots make you feel like your heart is going to jump out of your chest. Paisyn was doing just fine. Her heart rate was great and she was a happy baby, moving all around. It was just mom. So after 3 shots and rest the contractions have slowed down. The Dr. also gave me another shot, just in case I go into labor early. It helps Paisyn's lungs to develop faster. So now I'm at home on bed rest. I'm so glad I have a Dr. that is over protective, but this pretty much sucks!! I just don't want Paisyn to come early.

I am so happy that they were able to stop things...but not happy that you have to do the whole preterm contractions things. I know how you feel...It TOTALLY BLOWS!!! Hopefully you will see the doctor this week and everything will be fine! I am sorry that you have to be on bed rest! Let me know if you need anything. We can't wait to come see you guys in 4 weeks! Love you!
Oh Jess I'm sorry. I will keep you in my prayers and hope that Paisyn doesn't make her appearance until it's time. Get some good reading in for me while you're on bed rest!
oh my goodness! how scary!! Im glad everything is looking ok, and that you and paisyn are doing well... I wish I could be there to entertain you while your on bed rest! Its SUCH a blessing that you are near your mom now, huh? The Lord is looking out for us! Anyway, good luck honey and keep us posted!!!!
I am so glad that things are looking better! You better take it easy so little Paisyn can grow big and strong! Can't wait to see her! Hope everything else is good with you guys! You are pretty lucky to have your family around though! Take care! Keep us posted, we're thinking about you guys!
Oh my gosh! I'm so sorry girl. Please let me know if I can do anything. I don't think I am too far away so I can come bring you anything you need. Paisyn seems like a litte fighter already. So, at least you know you'll have a little fireball!
Oh no! Good luck with it all :)
Um yeah, it's waaaay too early! Tell her to just chill--cuz that works! Riiight...:) I hope everything has calmed down now. Let's see some more preggo pics!
Hey girly!! First off, I'm glad I found your blog. Secondly, congrats on the little one coming!! Lastly, I'm sorry about the contractions and hospital visit. That probably is stressful and worrisome but I wish you the best with the rest of the pregnancy and all. I'm glad things are going better. Are you on bed rest from now until Paisyn comes?
Hey Jess! I found your blog from Laci's. Sorry to hear about early labor...not good at all! I hope everything goes well from here on out. How long do you have to be on bed rest for? I'll keep you in my prayers!
