Well leanne I am not to sure how my doctor is because i am not to term. I just got out of the hosp from him giving me sterroids cause I am only 34 weeks at the momment they gave me dates that did not match and we never realized it until going back through things. I have never been regular on my cycles. I am very scared what may happen now but am hearing even at 33 34 weeks she is going to be okay. I pray she is. Bed rest was something I could never see myself aculley being able to do until I seen a baby in NICU and I would stay in bed forever just so my child doesn't have to be in there fighting for there life
