quagmire

apparently, i am too far along to be given shots to stop contractions (falsie ones) but too early to deliver a baby. wasn't too happy when i talked to the doctor on call about it, as my doctor is out of town for the week, but felt comforted when she did make a call to high risk ob on my behalf to see if i qualified for delivery because of my previous ruptured uterus. he said i might but he wasn't able to give her permission to preform one, only the hospital high head docs could. (there is a very strict policy at the hospital, banner desert, no elective deliveries pre - 39 weeks. i am 38 weeks.) i was under the very strong opinion i wasn't to have steady contractions but apprently it's fine as long as they aren't very hard. as how to know what "very hard" means, still a bit up in the air for me. i don't want the baby early, i just want the contractions to stop because i thought they were bad for me. i don't want anything to happen to my baby! don't know what to think anymore.

ps - don't know if i spelled "quagmire" correctly, but there it is anyway.
