This is not the kind of excitement we were looking for. We came in friday night & after tuerbutaline, procardia, and magnesium the contractions finally started to slow down. Yesterday was pretty miserable- magnesium is an awful drug. I did convince the doctor to turn it down, so that has helped a little. The contractions calm down for a while, but always manage to pick back up again. We are hoping to get the magnesium turned off today & that the terbutaline and procardia can keep it under control so I can go home. I spent the first night & all of yesterday on a delivery bed which was horribly uncomfortable (that didnt help matters any) Last night they got me a regular bed and Chris got a cot, so we both got a little bit of sleep. As much sleep as you can get in a hospital anyway- with hourly vitals, drugs, and lab draws. Nothing beats being home in your own bed!
