Spotting and Contractions

I went to the delivery room yesterday to have myself checked because I had spotting yesterday afternoon. My mom, Griffin and I left at around 6 pm. I did not expect to be there till after midnight neither did I expect that I would be admitted. The main problem was because of the moderate contractions I was experiencing. I was injected brikanil twice but after 15 to 20 minutes there would be a spike again. I kept on praying that there would no longer be moderate contractions so that I could go home already.

Poor Griffin, he waited for me for so long until he got sleepy, so my mom had to bring him home. He was left with Auntie Pebbles and Tai-ma while my mom went back to the hospital and waited for Willie to come. When my mom got back, Griffin was really sleepy so they went home until he eventually fell asleep. I was really worried that he would get up in the wee hours of the morning looking for me since it's the first time that he has slept without me by his side. He slept through the night. When Willie came back for him this morning, he was still asleep, when he eventually woke up he was crying. Willie was telling him that they would go see me and it would be like a hotel room. He did not want to go because he felt bad. When I talked to him on the phone he told me, "Why are you taking so long?". It's the first time we've ever been apart for a very long time. I told him to come and see me. He was a happy little boy already when he arrived at the hospital. He loved playing with the bed. When we were about to leave, he even said, "I'm going to miss this place".

I was fortunately allowed to go home this afternoon. I had an ultrasound and everything was fine. I was given duvadilan for the contractions and an antibiotic for the UTI. Now, I have to be really careful with what I do, I have to limit moving around so much, so as not to get tired and stress myself. This is quite hard to do when I have to play with Griffin and clean up his mess everyday, but I won't tire myself anymore, I don't want to give birth prematurely. Hoping everything would be fine with this pregnancy until around the third week of May when I would be 37 weeks already and could probably give birth through c-section.
