Need advice.

I have had a lot of complications with this pregnancy. I was high risk going into it because I went into labor with my first son at 32 weeks, they held off labor for 4 weeks and I had him at 36 weeks. He stayed in the NICU for a week, and I was a wreck that week. Also, the baby has VSD (a moderate sized hole in the lining of his heart that causes blood to pass between both sides... normally it isn't a problem if it is a small hole... but they can't tell what this hole is going to do yet)

Anyway, back to my original point.  I am 28 weeks 4 days to the day and I lost my plug last week, to find out my cervix had shortened A LOT. They have me Procardia and my first round of steroids and discharged me from the hospital. The next day I went in for my second shot to find out my contractions had started back up and I was 1cm 50%. So they admitted me into the high risk OB to start mag. I stayed for 3 days and opted to come home on bed rest still taking Procardia because we have an 11 month old and do not have the finances or the help for my husband to stop working. I am doing fine, I have been home for 5 days now, still contracting... but not regularly and I have weekly appointments. The doctor said realistically he expects my son to come anytime in the next 4 weeks. I am scared to death, I just remember how I felt with my son and I was almost to term with him. He was a 5lb baby, I don't know how I would react or be with a baby in the hospital that I can't stay with (I stayed in the hospital with my son the full week). What can I expect? Do you think my doctor could be wrong? I would love to make it until my induction date, but seeing as that is a little over 9 weeks away and I have already started to progress I don't see that to be a realistic expectation. I am just freaking out. 

I had my daughter at 29 weeks.. I won't lie, it was hard leaving her at the hospital everyday, she stayed for 5 weeks (I only got to room in the night before we brought her home) and it is very much an emotional rollercoaster. But being a mother, you find a way to handle it.. You find the strength for your little one(s) and you take things one step at a time. I am very thankful that my daughter is now a healthy toddler.. I am sorry that your baby might have some complications with the heart, but I swear you will find it in you to get by each day. Your family is in my prayers, good luck to you.
