A 22-year-old woman in her first pregnancy with an unremarkable
prenatal course presents with preterm labor at 28 weeks gestation.
Her contractions were successfully stopped with terbutaline.
Discharge planning was reviewed with her, and she was instructed to
follow a regimen of bedrest and oral terbutaline. She reported that
she did not intend to comply with these instructions. She believed
that God would not allow her to labor unless it was time for the baby
to deliver, and she indicated that He had communicated this to her.
How would you handle this situation?
