Hello everyone...Ive joined a couple of days and found this community by being online while on bedrest. I am going on my 33 weeks of pregnancy but near giving birth preterm since i am on a tocolytic to stop my contractions...ive far dilated and thinned out so soon my baby girl will come if i dont keep off my feet....Its been very hard to deal with the fact that she will be most likely premature...I just dont know how to prepare myself for the incubation, ventilators and tube feedings in the NICU.  So far I have met only wonderful supportive women and without this site, i know i definately would be struggling alot more...Looking forward to meeting  all you mums...its great to have finally get advise from real mums.

Hi Lina! We spoke in chat and I very stupidly called you Lisa - sorry again!

I'm Hazel, Mum to Ella who is 20 months old. Keep resting, and keep us posted on how you're doing.

Welcome to Madmums!
