The Pains of Motherhood...

So as most know I have had a preterm baby and Ryan was in the NICU for almost a month due to some crazy complications.  Well, I was in the OBES last night for contractions which is way too early at 33 weeks and found out that I am almost to 4 cm and 40% effaced.  It scares me cause this is what I was at when my water broke with Ryan and he was born at 33 weeks and 6 days.  The test came back positive that I will have this little one in the next two weeks.  So basically any time.  I am terrified even though I know he will be in good hands.  I kept telling my husband that I don't want to go through the NICU experience again but it looks like its a possibility. 

The only bonus to having had a son in the NICU before is that I know the nurses and doctors already and that since he will be born at the U of U that my hubby will be able to visit a lot.  Kevin has worked at the hospital for 5 years and last time he would go up and see Ryan every chance he got.  I, on the other hand, will have to only go up between Kevin's work schedule since my mother has passed away.  She watch my boys for me last time.  I am hoping and praying the test was a faults positive even though my contractions are coming back.  Only time will tell at this point.
