[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 436363, member: 1991"] Don't get too enthusiastic about preemie outfits. Wait a bit. On bed rest the baby will grow, faster. Also, if she can hold off labour (and I well remember contractions hotting up as each pill wore off! I was taking one pill every three hours, at night I woke at 2 and a half hours) then she could go almost to full term. I told you I had this problem with all my pregnancies but especially with difficult child 3. Each time the doctor took me off the pills at 37 weeks. Only with difficult child 3, did the bay hang on more than a day after that. But difficult child 3 I went to 39 weeks. Apart from easy child (placental insufficiency - the baby being starved in utero by a dying placenta) ALL my kids were about 7 pounds. difficult child 1 was prem by development; had some breathing issues, a bit pigeon-chested to begin with. But tell her to really focus on keeping her bladder empty, plus (with her stone) drink lots. I know it means she will be back and forth to the loo, but it IS the best way to handle this. The empty bladder greatly reduces the contractions, but drinking lots should help with the infection. Marg [/QUOTE]
