31 weeks... what a scare

I was excited as usual about being another week farther along when I started bleeding. I was at home abiding by bed rest and watching a movie on the couch, when I felt the bleeding. My MIL and friend drove me to hospital. Michael was out of town with work and had to rush home. During the trip I started gushing blood. I was terrified! we got to the hospital and the gushing continued for awhile. They ran some tests and did a sono. After about 24 hours the bleeding was down to spotting. They have given me two doses of steroids to try and get Kennedi's lungs to mature a little faster. I'm still on the terbutaline to make the contractions stop. They had to increase the dose yesterday. Right now I'm still in the hospital with some light bleeding. Kennedi has been responding well to all the stress, thankfully. Right now the Dr is waiting to see what will happen over the next few days. Whether or not I will quit bleeding or start back again. He said yesterday that if the bleeding stops that he might send me home on monday. I'm not really looking forward to that. Michael and I have never been so scared as we were that day. There was soooooo much blood and it all happened without any kind of warning. We live 20-25 minutes from the hospital and the Dr informed us yesterday that the next bleed will be worse. All the more reason I'd rather just stay here so that they can do an emergency c-section right away and make sure that her and I both have the best possible outcome. Michael and I told the Dr yesterday that we would prefer to stay just because of the fear. 

I finally got 4 hours of sleep tonight, for the first time in 2 days. But I woke up from a bad dream that I started bleeding again. Michael has been sooooo wonderful and all of our family and friends have been so supportive. I think after this is all said and done Michael is going to need a major massage. He is sleeping on the oh so wonderful pull out beds here in the hospital so that I don't have to be alone at night. His family and our friends have been taking rotations coming by and making sure I'm not alone. Michael has told his work that for now he can't be going out of town again. Thankfully his office is 5 minutes from the hospital. I will keep yall posted as things happen.
