Early Labor Stopped

I just wanted to update everyone and say thanks for the prayers some of you ladies put on my earlier post. I went in to ER and was 1/2 cm dialated and having contractions every 8 minutes. They did an ultrasound to check baby, who is very healthy, and then gave me some Demerol and meds to stop contractions. Finally after 8 hours I am being released with instructions for strict bed rest for two weeks. So thankful my little man didn't come at just 16wk!!!!!

That's such great news!! I went into preterm labor at 15 weeks with my son, (it was actually caused by a UTI) and they were able to stop it, I was put on bedrest for 2 weeks as well, and after I was just fine, had an easy pregnancy and delivered him at 40w1d!
