Praying for my friend

This morning my good friend sent me a text saying she was having strong contractions...at 32 weeks. She was in our local hospital on IVs and getting shots of medicine to stop the contractions. Until about noon it sounded like she may have to be transfered to Sioux Falls becasue they were not stopping. FINALLY she called and said they were much better and the doctor was hoping things were going to be going better. She also said that she is not dialated or anything so that is also a good thing.

This really hit home for me because not only is Sarah a close friend but I was in a similar situation not too long ago. The only difference is that I was almost "expected" to go into labor at an early date because I was having twins. I feel her pain and wish that everything goes well for her. I would not wish having to go though this on anyone. The medicine they give you makes you feel horrible and laying in bed doing nothing for a extended period of time is not my idea of fun...especially when you are thinking about your unborn child and hoping and praying that things will turn out alright.
