Not necessarily: Look at your trade offs in the situation.The best place for baby to be in inside the uterus to grow and develop. If delivered at 31 wks the percentage going to the neonatal ICU for intensive care is 80%+, with an expected stay of 4-6 wks.The 3x in 8 hours is equivalent to 1 stopping, had you come in on 3 occasions over 3 wks that is counted as 3 episodes.Sounds like they are treating you right.
