More contractions.......

So I had a follow up appointment today with my midwife.  I was still not feeling very good.  When I got to see Charlotte and explain to her what I was feeling she decided that I would go back over to Labor and Delivery to get monitored.  She wanted to see if I was still having contractions or maybe just back spasms.  So we got over to labor and delivery and got all hooked up.  Come to find out I was still having contractions.   I was told I am having an irritable uterus, they gave me another pill to see if it would help again.  Luckily it did!  But it wont make them go away for good.  I was given a prescription and told to take them when I start feeling contractions.  If they last for more then an hour after taking the pill I need to go back into the hospital.  One doctor said that I would have to probably deal with this until baby Cook decides he's ready to come into the world, that wasn't to comforting.  We were able to talk to my midwife before we left the hospital and she said that they could stop, so we can be hopeful.  So to try to get them to stop, so we wont have to deal with them for the next 16 weeks, I get to take it easy for the next week.  I will see Charlotte again next Friday.  Hopefully staying home and getting some rest and decompressing without having to worry about anything will help.  I feel bad but am very thankful to my coworkers who are covering me.  Hopefully after next week things can all go back to normal.  I wish we new what was causing the contractions.  Prayers are asked that they calm down and that we don't end up back in the hospital.  It has been a stressful last few days.  Of coarse I think of more questions I should have asked after we leave the hospital. Like what can happen if they don't stop....  But since I didn't ask lets just pray that they go away and I don't have to find out.
