A little scare

I started having contractions after work yesterday around 5pm. I had a constant contraction from 5pm until about 5am. I drank some water this morning and had breakfast and the contraction seemed to stop. I called the Dr.'s office at 8 and they told me to go to L&D. So, Tony and I went at about 8:30 this morning. They checked my cervix, which really hurt, and said I was about a fingertip and it was still really thick. They put me on the monitors and noticed my contractions were erratic. I was also dehydrated so they started me on an IV. That wasn't helping the contractions, so they gave me a shot to stop the contractions. I had 2 of them; one every 20 minutes. Thank goodness my contractions stopped and I didn't have to have another one. They burned when they went in, increased mine & Brooke's heart rate and made me extremely jittery. Brooke did not seem to be in any distress. They kept saying, "Wow, you have a happy, hyper baby. Does she ever sleep?" She would not stop moving. I guess since my uterus was relaxed she had more room to move around! :) So, after about 4 hours they said we could go home and that I was to take it easy for the rest of the week & drink LOTS of water. No work! Dr. Harvey thinks that she will be here within the next week or two. I have an appointment with her tomorrow for my Strep B test and to make sure I'm still not contracting. I have been laying down since we got home and I have had about 3 contractions. This whole experience made me really nervous and realize I am NOT ready for labor!! I don't think Tony is either!!
