She wanted to come early

Last Thursday night I went into Labor. I know what your saying "It's too soon" my contractions started around 8:00 pm,
I was having this really sharp pain every 5 minutes it started in my back and then would wrap around to the front of my stomach so I told Shawn and he said keep timing them and if their still happening when he got out of the shower we would go up to the hospital, well 15 minutes passed and they were still coming every 5 minutes so we all got in the car and headed for the hospital we got to Davis Hospital and they got me right up to the Labor and Delivery floor and hooked me to the monitors and sure enough I was having contractions they started coming every 2 minutes, the nurse checked me and she said I was dilated to a 1 and 50% defaced. So she called my doctor and he said we need get those contractions stopped so they gave me Terbutaline and after three doses of that they stopped we left the hospital around 1:30 a.m, oh you might be thinking where was Tyson during all of this well my Mother and Father-in-law were coming home from St.George so they stopped by the hospital and picked Ty up and he went home with them. And my mom came up to the hospital to and I'm so glad she did I don't know if anyone else was like this while they were having a baby or just in labor, but I need my mom there for some reason she makes me feel safe and when your in alot of pain she knows what your going threw, I know she will never say "oh just buck up and take the pain" like some husbands do.
So the end result is that I need to take it easy not get stressed out and when I feel the the contractions start coming I take some more of that Terbutaline and they really do help they just make me feel really weird so I don't like to take them, but I have to follow doctor's order's.
I'm still working I plan on working right until the end I really want as much time as possible with her when she gets here.
I go back to the doctor on Monday so I will give you an update then.
