Premature labor

Any premature labor stories? I'm curious to everyone's experience.

With my first, one morning at 34wks I woke up feeling really off. By the time my husband came home from work I had cramps and diarrhea. We lay in bed and watched a Harry Potter movie to see if it settled but it didn't so he called my dr who said go to the hospital. When we got there they put the monitor on and said I was on labour. My dr said he wouldn't stop it because I'd been battling preeclamplsia since 28wks and my body had had enough but it stopped by itself 12hrs later and I had a csection the next week. This pregnancy ive been battling preeclamplsia since 15wks and my body try to bail out again. I woke up feeling a bit off at 27wks with random menstrual cramps. By lunch time I was having intestinal cramps so bad I felt like I couldn't get off the toilet for 1.5hrs then I lost my mucus plug. By the time my husband got home from work 20mins later I was having regular painful contractions. By the time we got to the hospital they were 3mins apart. They stopped it and kept me in for 2wks as they had to stop it a couple more times and I've been on meds since. I'm now 34+4wks and scheduled for csection in 10days.
