My first baby, Charlie Isabelle, stopped growing at 30 weeks. They closely monitored me until I went into labor at 31 weeks then managed to stop the labor but I was admitted  to the hospital for baby monitoring a extreme bedrest at 3 weeks labor started again, they were able to stop it once more but at 34 weeks I was still in the hospital and they informed me if I went into labor again they would not stop it. They told me she wasn't growing inside of me and there was a bigger risk of something happening if she was inside me rather than outside where they could address her problems.2 days before I was 36 weeks my contractions started on my 36 week mark I was induced and at 10pm on Dec 9th. I gave birth to a beautiful 4lb 4oz baby girl. She was blue and not breathing they immediatly took her to N.I.C.U it was the scares moment of my life. Her daddy and I didn't even get to see her until 3am. We didn't get to hold her for 2 days. She was on oxygen and she couldn't keep her body temp up. She was out of NICU and in my room 1 week after she was born we were released 4 days latter. Now I have a beautiful 16lb baby and she is 10 months old. My suggestion to you is drink plenty of water and ask for a steroid shot to develop the babies lung I was too far along and could not receive one. Stay odd you feet and try to prolong it as much as possible.
