Update
As some of you know, I went to the hospital last night with contractions that were five min apart, and I had a lot of trouble convincing them to see me. They had trouble finding baby boys heartbeat, but when they did the ultrasound, ge was wiggling around and sucking his thumb. He was uncomfortable, but after they stopped the labor, they said he looked good. We did see a specialist, because they are concerned about his size. He is doing the same thing my daughter did; developing, but on a miniature scale. They want to keep an eye on it.
The worst news of the night ended up being about me. They think I have a pulmonary embolism and they want to remove my gallbladder. I guess they don't usually do the surgery during pregnancy, but the doctor was very concerned and said that I seem to be having a lot of problems and he wants it out soon.
They contacted my doctor, but he never showed up to the hospital. I am supposed to call him today and discuss my pregnancy, which is now considered high risk. I don't want to go in and talk to him. I feel like the stress of dealing with that idiot wod make things worse.
Anyway, sorry for the long post, but I guess u have a lot of things to process today, and I am getting overwhelmed with it all. Maybe later I will sit down, figure out what questions I have about each issue, and post about those separately. Thanks for listening, and thank you all so much for all of your advice and encouragement last night!

I have tiny babies as well. Both of mychildren were small at all of the ultrasounds I have been diagnosed with iugr baby develops normally just is small. Hubby and I still need to get preemie clothes for this one as they are inducing me in 3 weeks. The doc says it is safer for baby to be out then to stay in my womb. If you need any support at all feel free to message me.
I'm 18+4. at least the contractions have gone back to just being Braxton hicks! And it was such a relief to see baby boy healthy
