This! I mean seriously OP. It would be better to get the shot and reduce the chance of your baby being born premature than have a premature baby that would possibly have a lot of health problems and possibly not make it. Like I said I am I firm believer in God and he has his hand on every situation in our lives but that doesn't mean he doesn't want you to not get a shot that could potentially save your child's life.

This. Not to mention it's pretty darn presumptuous to think that a shot is going to stop God's plan. If he wants a baby born early it will be born early. I can assure you that no shot is going to overcome something that God wants to happen.

agreed ... But I obviously need to find a new doctor since he cant tell me jack smurf about the shot

I think you should find a new Dr as well. Especially if the Dr can't tell you about a shot that he/she wants you to get.

Actually neither could mine. The perinatal explained the shot to me. And gave them to me. But it does sound like you need a new doctor if they didn't even suggest a perinatal specialist to monitor you.
