Well, after the previously positive posts, we have a bit of a turnaround. Christina's been having some contractions for the last couple of weeks. We went to her appointment this morning, and the doctor was concerned enough to send us over to the hospital for an IV, medications, and monitoring. After several hours of not knowing what was going on, the staff decided the contractions hadn't been sufficiently suppressed, so Christina's staying at the hospital overnight. The doctor still doesn't seem too concerned, since the contractions haven't caused any change in the cervix (it's still closed and thick), and she hopes more medicine might help balance things back out. Please keep Christina in your thoughts as we try to figure out what's happening.
