Finally home the contractions finally slowed down and so did the dilating. On bedrest now and have to call doctors 1st thing Monday morning to make appt for this week and she will decide what to do once she checks me herself. Hopefully labor stopped but idk still having some contractions and a lot of back pain. I guess we will see I really hope I don't end up back in L&D again this weekend but I have a feeling while my other 2 managed to make it full term I don't think he is going to.

They might only check you if your contractions were a lot closer like every 2-3 mins. My cervix was checked when I was having contractions every 3 minutes when I was 32 weeks they gave me a shot to stop contractions but didnt help but they gave me a pill every six hours thay stopped my contractions. My cervix was 50% thinned out thats why they kept checking me when I stayed the night because they were making sure I wasn't effacing more but now ill be 35 weeks tomorrow so all is going good (: good luck to you(:

I wouldnt imagine they would check your cervix at only 33 weeks... they want to keep that baby in there longer and gave you stuff to stop the contractions.... hope everything turns out okay
