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 ?

Hey - I went on maternity leave today [am crashing this fact onto any thread I ever ever even lurked on] but it's a very importnat point here, as it means even more time has passed.

This baby really is getting there Worzel!

Hang in there baby W! Every day that passes improves your chances.

hello worzel, just seen a link to this thread. My mother's waters broke at 25 weeks and I was born at 28 weeks, and ended up fine - 30 weeks nowadays is very good news indeed!

Best wishes.

Hi all I'm a friend of Worzsel and have been given the task of updating this lovely thread . I know that a lot of you have been popping on regularly to show your support and that it means a lot to Sarah, so please keep following her story.

So, to the update ...

Sarah went to hosp yesterday morning after what she suspected was a show and also contractions in the night. The contractions stopped during the day but came back last night, so they were going to take out the stitch and let Sarah have a go at a breech birth. However it seems that the plans have changed and a CS is imminent, with a decision being made shortly as to what type of cut will be used. I know that Sarah is ready for this to get started now, but understandably apprehensive about the CS as they've suggested a classic cut in the past.

So in short, three things to pray for ladies:

  • Nice strong lungs
  • A fighting fit little boy
  • A successful CS staying well away from a classic incision!

I have everything crossed, no one deserves everything to go right like Sarah does, so hopefully today will be a great end to a very shitty year.

Patchybob · 31/12/2008 11:04

Oh, my thoughts and prayers are with her and her little one, bring on that fantastic end to the year for her and her family.

RuDiegetheRedNosedReinDiege · 31/12/2008 11:06

Gosh LOLLI thanks for the update. Really hope things go to plan - will be thinking of Worzsel and her little baby, as will most of mumsnet I think! Lots of love, prayers, and good wishes xxx
