Yesterday I had my 35 week check up at the ob. I was still coughing and hacking, so he gave me an atibiotic and told me to do whatever I needed to do to get rid of the cough and sinus stuff.(our family physician wouldn't prescribe anything because he said all ob's feel differently about illness). Anyway...the ob also said that any time now, I can have this baby. They will not stop labor. That is good to hear since I have a long history of preterm labor and having to be on bedrest. It was a relief for the whole family. He does want me over this bug before I have the baby, so to make a long story short(sorry), could you all pray that I get well soon? I have been having contractions on and off for the last couple of weeks, but nothing consistent. I really want to be in the best health when I meet this new little person. Thank you.
Jen

You've got it, Jen. I'm glad you will be able to avoid the bedrest thing...

Praying! I had the exact same thing happen with my last pg a few months ago. Taking 4000mg of Vit C daily was the only thing that kept my cough at bay. I would *definitely* check with your OB before doing something like that, however.
Hugs and many prayers! I remember well those late pregnancy, hacking days!

I will, Jen.
I have been having contractions, too, on and off for a couple of weeks, and I am only 27 weeks! I certainly would trade with you in a minute....you will be in my prayers.
