Preterm labor

Been having contractions for little over a month. This is the second time I've had to go in so they could stop them... I'm nervous she's gonna come too early. I'm currently 32 weeks 5 days. Anyone else having problems?

I'm almost 32 weeks and had this happen to me over the weekend! I went in Saturday with contractions and they gave me a shot to stop them. I got discharged from the hospital a couple of hours later. Haven't had contractions since, but have had cramping and light back pain. Hopefully this little girl decides to stay in there a little while longer! It was definitely a scare for sure!

Yup I've had 5 l&d trips already and all 5 tines they've had to stop my contractions. I started all this  around 29w5d, I'm now 36w5d. Still pregnant =) I was on pills to stop contractions from 30weeks to 36 weeks.

Same here. Had it stopped 3 times at 27wks and have been on meds since but still get cramps and contractions every day, now 34wks. I am scheduled for csection at 36wks tho due to my complications. I think it depends on why you went into preterm labour but I've read a lot of stories on the net that have still managed to go full term and even over so your chances are still good. Good luck!
