Hopefully that won't happy  

Thank you ladies. Really. I'm not much of a complainer or a whiner but this has just really been eating me up and I just really needed some encouragement.

I know it's a justified csection so that does help as compared to if I pushed for induction and had to have one because I wanted my kid out before they were ready. So I know I win have any regrets there. but it's just so hard to accept that this is real and all that could happen in the next month before I go on hospital bed rest.

That's what I'm praying for.

Oh hun, it's completely understandable. I'd be terrified, I can't imagine how that would feel. Does it HAVE to be 35 weeks or is that just a precaution? I don't know much about the condition, just what Wikipedia told me, which was a whole lot of medical words that make little sense to me, so I'm not 100% on how serious it is. I mean, I know it's serious but I don't really know what could happen? 35 weeks isn't ideal, but medicine can work wonders these days.. They'll toughen up her lungs before she's out and they'll have people on standby if anything goes wrong. She might not be completely healthy, but she'll be alive, and so will you.

Yeah It has to be 35 weeks. I'm sure if she was 100% developed my dr would take her now that's how concerned he is. He said he would totally keep me on Bed rest but understands that I need to work and said I could go if I was easy. There is 4cm of cervix between what would mean life for my LO and immediate death. At this point if I dilated she would die before I could get to the hospital. That's why he's putting me in at 32 weeks just to be safe so if my cervix were to thin and get too close or if at any second that vessel broke they could get her out immediately and go from there. I just pray my cervix stays nice and closed until 35 weeks. But yeah after 35 weeks the risk of your body changing for preparation goes up significantly do its not worth the risk. There's a website for it www.vasaprevia.org. It also says babies need delivered by 35 weeks. If you go there there's a link called risk factors on the left for more info.

I did have steroids for her lungs already. So that is helpful. But I just know nothing about life with a preemie. It's so overwhelming. I'm trying to pick stuff up here and there in various preemie threads. But it's just not enough  

Praying for you Mama! I know it's tough not knowing what's going to happen and if they will have to take the baby right then or wait it out. I was in the hospital from 30 weeks on because I ended up with Acute Fatty Liver Syndrome. They ran tests daily to test my liver because if it got worse they would have had to take him right then before my liver burst. It was scary and luckily he came on his own but kinda early at 36 weeks and 5 days. I know you don't have that option, but I know how scary it is to worry about having a preemie and worry about the risk to yourself and your baby. It sucks and it makes you angry and sad at the same time. I'm here if you wanna talk!

Thank you so much. It is hard especially when I see all these ungrateful women on here complaining cause they're overdue by a day or trying to induce at 37 weeks. It just makes me cry every time cause I would give anything to go overdue and have a healthy 42 week baby. But it's not going to happen and I need to accept it. It's just hard right now. I try not to get upset because I don't want to cause labor or anything.

Exactly. I had issues with that too. DH almost didn't want me on here while I was in the hospital because I just got so upset. People complaining about how much they were in pain and I just wanted to tell them they haven't felt pain. With my liver condition, I was in severe pain (I was on a morphine drip) and had severe nausea as well. Hearing people talking about their "pain and morning sickness" made me want to reach through the computer and punch them. I would've stayed pregnant way overdue if I could have. It's very hard, I've been there.

Yeah it's rough. I felt like I took my first preg for granted in a way. I made bad decisions and I just really felt like I could do better this time. And now I feel like I am being ripped off.

Peyton was my first but we tried for a year and a half to get pregnant...so I didn't care I wanted the whole experience. I feel like I got ripped off too

Yeah we tried a long time for this one too. And waited a long time after dd. shes 5! And now I feel like its all my fault cause I wanted to get preg and I took clomid and that's most likely what caused all of my problems.
