My first pregnancy, I didn't have preterm labor issues, but I had sooo many other problems. All of my friends had such cute, healthy pregnancies too, while I was constantly sick with severe pains, extreme vomitting (yes, all 9 months), severe carpal tunnel from the swelling, and gestational diabetes.
I sooo wanted my baby to be early too! But, he was 4 days over due.
My sister, who did have a normal, healthy pregnancy,, had her son 1 month early, and her going to NICU, sometimes waiting days or hours to see him struggling to survive, hooked up to machines with a breathing tube was just terrible. (he's okay now by the way). She wasn't even allowed to hold him for quite a while.
Premies typically have a much harder time sleeping, eating, developing on schedule with other children their same age, and can have other medical problems.
I know it's hard! Hang in there as long as you can. Every week of your pregnancy counts as your baby progresses each week. Once the pregnancy is over, I promise, your body will return back to normal and you will forget the as much pain you were in. So you will want to stay in as long as possible for the health and safety of your baby, who may have to pay the consequences if you decide to decline the procardia. You can do it, just try to hold out for another couple of weeks (shoot for 37) if you can.
