Oh-em-gee!!! My dr. just stopped by and asked "Do you want to go home?" Drs. wanted me to get weaned off magnesium (through IV) once I hit the 30 week mark. So, they slowly weaned me on 8/21 and monitored me the same day and had a little hiccup. Basically, on 8/23 (completely off mag/IV), on top of the nifedipine every 6 hours, I had to take the another form of this pill, but meant for "use as needed". I was feeling bummed about it b/c I wasn't sure if that meant it wasn't working. However, what ended up was that they increased the dosage of the (every 6 hours) pill and it worked enough after that. I'm nervous, but my Dr. came by today and said as long as I don't have any physical changes and some contractions I don't feel that nurses see when I'm monitoring may not mean anything.
As long as I'm bedrest like I am in hospital and I will be on these pills, it s/b fine. Let's cross our fingers and hope I'll be fine at home and stay baking this little lady in my oven a little bit longer! <3
