I had preterm contractions at 22 weeks and they gave me a shot of morphine in my butt to stop them. It worked, but it hurt like crazy.

I had the shots with my second baby. I had contractions, but wasn't dialated. They sent me home. 3 hrs later the contractions were so bad, I went back to the hospital. They said I was dialated to 8 centimeters and delivered my baby 30 mins after.

I got two shots. Hurt like hot spicy molasses. Some medicine that started with a "T". I was at 32 weeks, and it helped... im now at 35 weeks and havent had any more contractions. Ive been on bed rest too, seemed to help.
