Waters broken at 32+6 - positive stories needed

Hi all

Out of nowhere tonight my waters broke at 32+6. I have had a very uneventful pregnancy to this point so am in a state of shock really. Have had antibiotics and steroids and am having mild contractions every 6 minutes or so. Any stories from folk who have been in similar situations, preferably positive!

Hello, my son was 33 plus 4 days and other than staying in special care for 3 weeks, no health issues at all. Turning 5 this year

Spontaneous labor at 31+6 when my waters broke and DS popped out 4h later. He had zero health issues, had a three week stay in the NICU as here they have to be until 35w gestation. He's nearly three now and has had precisely zero issues from day one.

Good luck! I had a 34 weeker with IUGR. She was in nicu for three weeks but now six and you would never know.

I’m 32 weeks now. Three weeks ago I had 4 hours of intense cramping and contractions. I’m relieved to say they passed and I’m still pregnant - but my midwife did reassure me that outcomes even THAT early tend to be positive after a NICU stay. She was very reassuring. Still - best of luck to you and baby over the next exciting days...!
