Waters broke 14 weeks is there any hope?

I think my waters broke and I'm only 14 weeks along, i was stood in the kitchen and all of a sudden there was a load of bloody liquid like wee but I wasn't weeing. Maternity unit wouldn't see me because I was less than 18 weeks and EPU is shut so they told me to ring 111 who said go to A&E so now I'm sat in A&E.

There is no hope for the baby though right? :( I have had 3 miscarriages and when this one got to 12 weeks and everything looked OK I stupidly began to relax.

The lack of care you have received isn't right. You are being so brave. I hope it's a positive outcome.

I’m reaching out to wish you luck today for your scan!
I really hope it’s positive news!
I had a lot of bleeding very early on in both my pregnancies, all was ok, and I hope the same for you! Good luck!

Got my fingers crossed for you op.

Aussiegirl123456 · 27/03/2023 11:06

Oh OP, I’m thinking of you and hoping for positive news.

If it’s any consolation, I bled heavily, bright red blood, almost constantly throughout my first pregnancy. I remember the feeing like it was yesterday, so I understand. I have no idea where that blood ever came from, but that baby will be 18 soon. I am sending positive vibes for you my love and I am so sorry you’re not getting the care you deserve. Lots of love x

You hit the nail on the head.

This isn't a medical emergency. The NHS is barely managing medical emergencies, therefore you have not been prioritised. That makes logical sense to anyone.

However, this is a personal emergency for you. It's your baby! I totally understand and agree that it's just awful, and not good enough.

I'm thinking of you and sending well wishes for your scanFlowers

Hope you are doing OK. I think anyone who had history of losses and bleeding will understand how terrifying/devastating that is even if your life is not at risk as per say.

Thank you everyone, just been triaged so waiting for the midwife to come down to A&E, my blood pressure was low so now I have a special A&E chair and didn't have to go back to the waiting room so that's nice atleast

Thinking about you . Keeping everything crossed . Hugs

MotherOfUnicorns4 · 27/03/2023 11:20

Keep popping back to check updates and hoping for good news for you op. I'm currently being monitored for early pregnancy bleeding. The waiting and unknown is awful.

loislovesstewie · 27/03/2023 11:22

BTW, I had a cervical erosion during my first pregnancy. I bled and the stink was vile, I was 28 weeks pregnant before the doctor on the mat ward, the only one who took it seriously, diagnosed the problem. The baby is now 34. I was petrified that I was miscarrying, giving birth early just due to the amount of blood lost. I wasn't. The baby was actually overdue in the end. I wish you well and here's a handhold from me.

Jamieleecurtain · 27/03/2023 11:22

I’ve been in the anxious waiting position you’re in and it feels unbearable doesn’t it? Thinking of you and your husband.
