What was your labor and delivery story?

I went into labor at 27w5d. My water broke, and I was at home. We went to the hospital, to be moved to a bigger hospital with a NICU. They stopped my labor twice, I believe mainly just to get the steroids in my babys system. I'm not sure why they didn't keep stopping it, perhaps that's bad for the baby? I honestly didn't ask at the time, everything seemed to be happening so fast! I gave birth to my daughter almost 4 days later, at 28w2d. She was born at 12:22AM and I believe my labor started around 2PM the day before. She weighed 2lbs even, 14.5 inches long! Spent 91 days in the NICU. She is now 7 months old and weighs 13lbs 10oz!! She is getting so big!
