My Waters Went on Monday at 22+4 :(

[WorzselMummage]

Hi,

Does anyone have any experience of really premature rutured membranes ?

My waters went on monday as a result of an infection i picked up having an emergency stitch put in last week.

Babys fine and the stitch is still holding, i've not gone in to labour but obviously this is a grim situation and we're likely to lose our baby boy.

I'm on some wacking great antibiotics which are making me feel hideous but i have been discharged from hospital, there is nothing mroe they can do there apparently so i am home on bedrest praying babys lungs develop and he stays put for a few more weeks to at least give him a chance.

Does anyone know anyne who has been though this ?

Fingers crossed for you and your little boy - big hugs.... good luck xxx

Hello wm, Just wanted to say I've been reading your replies and I think you're really strong positive - I hope God gets you through this tough time, my prayers are with you and the bubba xx

Have been reading your threads for ages now and just want to say I think your great, so brave and amazing. Good luck to you and your baby and I hope everything goes well for you. Take care xxx

oh gosh what a thread!

Wishing you lots of strength(and fluid!)

thinking of you!x

Thanks everyone

I've been a big niggly today, backache and crampyness. No CX as such but i am on red alert if you know what i mean. Mentioned it to cons this morning and he said it's probably just the UTI bu the antibiotics are already doing their stuff which is good.

I really dont want to go in to labour tonight, Dd is SO excited she's climbing the walls I want to see her face in the morning when she unwraps the snow white dress shes been harping on about since september !

How you all have a wonderful day tomorrow I will keep you informed xxxx

HOPE you all have a wonderful day even..

DD was distracting me with her "but whe haven't got a chimney" questionaire again. Oh to be almost 4 again !

So glad the antibiotics are working. I've had several UTI's (tho not while pregnant) and they always made me crampy and made my back hurt. Hopefully that's all.

Did you tell DD that Santa can get in even if there's no chimney so she should leave some milk and bikkies by a window?

Is someone making you Christmas dinner?

Oh Worzel, it's all go for you isn't it. No wonder your knackered. Hopefully though everything will be calm for Christmas and boxing day and you and your dh and dd can have a lovely family day. All my thoughts and prayers are with you and baby. Take care big((hugs))

Oh my gosh, I missed the latest developments. So is the baby being delivered tomorrow by c section or did I get the wrong end of the stick?

No no hopefully no section tomorrow, i think they were just concerned from my blood results that i had an infection brewing in my womb but thankfully it just seems to be sqiffy waterworks so baby can stay put.. not convinced he's going to but if i can just get to after present opening tomorrow i'll breath a sigh of relief !

We've left FC a Beer and a Mince Pie which DF's already scoffed and Rudolphs got a carrot

Sil is cooking for us tomorrow and mil on Boxing day then my arents are coming up after and takign us out for a meal.. i've not even bought a Turkey this year which feels odd although i am not much of a chef so its kind of nice !

Meals on sleigh sound amazing !

just seen this thread, and add my prayers for baby worzel.
What a pregnancy! Am so glad you have got this far, and will keep praying for you all.

Have just (pant, pant) run after Santa and his sleigh (pant, pant) for several blocks with your Christmas dinner (gasp); he graciously agreed to stop at your house to deliver roast turkey, gravy, stuffing, mash, peas and sprouts, and a half dozen individual-sized cheesecakes. They're all packed safely in a box that Jackbaby stuck a lilac ribbon and a Canadian flag on (colours clash horribly, but hey-ho). Santa said he waived the customs declaration requirement because he wasn't planning on flying over U.S. airspace. Otherwise he'd have to clear it with Homeland Security or someone. He said he'd take the north flight path, starting here in B.C., north to the Yukon, east over the Northwest Territories, Nunavut, Iceland and Greenland and then to the U.K. He also told me he knew where to find you and how to get in your house even though you have no chimney, so you can reassure DD on that head.
And... he whispered in my ear that he hasn't heard anything about a last-minute two-pound delivery to the W Family... he said as far as he knows, that's not due for several more weeks...
Love from Rudolph and all the other reindeer, by the way, they promised not to eat your cheesecake!

Oh good good Worszel, glad to hear it. Fingers crossed, no labour imminent!!

Hi Worzel
Been lurking & thinking about you & your little one. We were in ICU for a while with DS2.
Best, Best of luck with everything.Have a lovely day tomorrow & hope he/she stays put for a little longer !

worzel, I'm so glad the antibiotics are kicking in and baby is still doing fine. Merry Christmas!

Oh, duh, and Baby W as well of course!!!

Merry Christmas Worzel and Worzelbaby - who would have thought that nearly 5 weeks ago you thought your little one was going to arrive, now here we are at almost 27weeks and he is still staying put. Now on to 28 weeks....

I know, i never expected to get to 27 weeks, it feels like a lifetime ago i have the stitch in and so much has happened.

I am still not sure about 28 weeks, I'm starting to think he'd be better out than in. I had an MW appointment this morning and my last HVS showed Group B Strep.. Just what I don't need It never rains but it pours, that how it goes isnt it ?.. I think i'm in fucking monsoon season or something, what else can go wrong ?

I am so pissing high risk i honestly dont know how much of it i can take, I feel like my body is killing my baby and nothing i can do will make any difference. I keep thinking at least if they get him out I cant do him any more damage and i might get to meet him while he's alive rather than feeling as if at the moment i am just waiting for him to die and then we'll never have that chance.

Oh and the Antibiotics are giving me kidney pain, bladder pain and crampyness, yesterday was the most uncomfortable day ever and i have had to make the decision to stay in all day today because i really cant be arsed with the interrogation and sympathy i'll get at G-mils.

I am so fucking fed up !

sorry

oh worzelmummage I am normally just a well-wishing lurker on this thread but I couldn't let your post go unanswered. Please don't give in to these feelings. It is very very understandable that you are feeling this way - you must be physically and emotionally exhausted. Your body is not trying to kill your baby - it has done everything possible to keep him alive through these weeks and it could easily have just abandoned the pregnancy. You and the LO have fought hard together to give him a fighting chance and everyone is full of amazement for your, and his, bravery. There is nothing more that you or your body could have done and none of this is your fault.

Please just be strong for a little while longer.

xx

Worzel I dont no what to say to offer you any comfort, have never been in your situation, but no that I would never have been as strong as you are. Have read every thread on this page and am always amazed how positive you are despite everything. Whatever has happened during this pregnancy hasnt been your fault, and your little boy has got bigger and stronger thanks to your love and devotion for him.
Take care xx

Oh Worzel I dont know what to say other than the fact that your little boy sounds like a real fighter! from 22 weeks you made it to 27 he has gone up from having no chance to having a fair fight at it. I dont think I am being presumptious by telling you that all our thoughts are with you and willing your little one to be ok.

(((((((BIGWARMHUG))))))
Don't know what else to say. You're dealing with so much and have been so brave.
Love to you and Baby W. Hang in there, both of you!!

Sorry that was a bit of a grim post wasn't it
