Update

An update on Julie, she's still in the hospital. Terbutaline or the procardia she was on were not stopping the contractions, so they have started her on magnesium sulfate. She will get the second steriod shot (two in a 'round') today, and it takes 48 hours for that to be effective, so they are keeping her on the magnesium sulfate for 48 hours and will then wean her off of it and see where things are at.

Her cervix hasn't changed, but it's much too early for all these contractions! Please pray they stop...that the magnesium sulfate will work, and that Josie will stay put for as long as possible! Someone from the NICU was coming down to talk to her and Brett today, just to give them some information. It makes it all seem real, and scary...please pray!

I trust in God's plan that He will keep them safe.
