OMG yay!!!

Do any of you mummy's know when I don't need steroids?! I was told that I will only have the steroids if there are signs of premature labour (there aren't - this is more of a general question...), but when are they no longer necessary?! 35 weeks? 37 weeks? 38 weeks? Xx

Hi ladies, thought I'd pop in. I'm pregnant with my 4th, my 3rd was born at 28 weeks exactly. Hoping for a full term baby with no hospital stay this time!!! x

 

[sethsmummy]

good luck hun xx

 

[miraclemomma]

So ladies, 35 weeks tomorrow...it appears baby is on his way! Come in with braxton hicks and they are now 4 minutes apart...fibronectin test has come back positive so me and hubby have a night on L&D xx

 

[sethsmummy]

eekk good luck hun! i cant wait for update

 

[miraclemomma]

All stopped! Kept me in cos they were convinced it was happening and then at about 3 this morning everything stopped! Think I'm being sent home on the strict instructions to come straight back if anything kicks off! Xx

 

[sethsmummy]

Oh that's fab news. I was so expecting baby details there lol. Stay cooking little bubba ❤️❤️❤️

 

[miraclemomma]

It was a weird mix of me thinking that he's a good size, he's had the corticosteroids so he'd be ok and I was excited to mean him, and then the feeling that I want him cooking for 2 more weeks at least (combined with - he better come before 40 weeks as I've optimistically booked a family holiday for 6 weeks after his due date!) no tightenings now but excruciating hip pain from being laid in bed for so long!!!

 

[sethsmummy]

awww well i hope he decides to come at bang on 38 weeks hun

 

[miraclemomma]
