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 ?

It's his birthday today, I can't believe it !

:)

How lovely, what a gorgeous wee boy. Happy Birthday to him.

thanks Mme

Wow Worzsel, I've only been on MN for a few months now so I missed all this, but what a journey, and I'm so, so glad it all worked out. That first photo on the previous page is heartbreaking (his little ribs! ) but he's absolutely beautiful and you must be so proud after what you went through.

I remember your thread very well.

Happy Birthday youu little star!

I have only just discovered this thread and felt I must comment on your extremely tumultuous journey. You (Sarah) are truly an inspiration and your courage through all this has been amazing. Happy Birthday wishes to your very beautiful baby boy (George). I must pull myself together now (and wipe away the tears of sadness, happiness and sheer joy) I have experienced through reading your truly emotional story. Best Wishes to you all for a very happy new year and future together X

Worzel - I can't believe it's been a year already.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY GEORGE**

Wow i remember following this thread last year. Can't believe it was a year ago. I was a few weeks pg at the time and now am the proud owner of a 6mth old boy

Happy Birthday George, you little star

It's crazy isnt it, it only feels like yesterday.

I think time speeds up as we get older...

Congrats on your bby phoenix

Happy New Year !

Worzel, I saw the thread title and immediately thought of you . I can't believe it has been a year. Happy birthday. xx

Just giving this a shamless bump with an update incase it's ever searched out by anyone going though something similar.

George is 19 months now and doing fantastically. He's developing completly normally and is in to everything. Despite horrid predicitions his lungs are perfect :)

He's doing everything a baby of his corrected age should be doing, He's got a quality sense of humour and has us all in stitches.

[proud]

If you do find this out because you're going though the same thing the think positive, it CAN be ok.

How lovely, congratulations :o
I've just had to skim the whole thread! Very glad it turned out so well for you!

I'm 27 weeks myself, hard to imagine he/she appearing now although my dh was born at 28 weeks actually (and doesn't seem to have any ill effects!)

It's great when people come back to update these kind of threads :)

I've read the whole thread in tears! I'm 26+6 myself, and so pleased everything worked out ok for you

That is wonderful! I also read the thread in tears. So happy for you.

My goodness... I have so much admiration for you all.

He is gorgeous. Thank you so much for the encouragement.

Just had a skim of this thread - major congratulations.
What a beautiful little boy!
