All I can tell you is to keep letting the doctor know what is going on. You may be going into labor, and it sounds like the doctor is hoping to keep the baby from coming for awhile longer. It is safer to go in and be sent home again than to take a chance on the baby coming on the way to the hospital. Please let us know what happens, and good luck! :-)
