Please I need some support from anyone in a similar situation. I am 25 weeks exactly. Yesterday my water started going at 6:20pm, I was admitted to hospital at 7pm. Had steroids and antibiotics at 9pm. by 1:15am this morning they scanned me and seen no waters around the baby.

Has anyone had success stories in this situation or similar?

What should I expect?

Any questions I need to ask neonatal team?

P.s. This was a low risk pregnancy before this.

I am very teary and need to get a grip to be the best I can for my baby at this time (So any advice welcome).

I have my real life support however my support has not experienced this situation.

Thank you in advance.

Congratulations on your baby girl Flowers

My dd was 1lb 11oz and is now 8 and doing well.

Remember to look after yourself.. there's a million people looking after dd and don't be scared to ask questions. Also, make notes.. the first 4 weeks were a blur. Oh, and take photos! I have hardly any of dd as a baby. Flowers

Admitting to checking several times a day to see how you and your daughter are getting on. Hoping you are able to have a wee cuddle now and again. Best wishes

Good morning,
Just a quick update baby is doing well. Now feeding on colostrum and having wet nappies and poo nappies. She is very active and the jaundice uv light is going off later on. The oxygen they are supplying her is minimal. So far so good.

Congratulations! So pleased she is doing well. My prem baby was a relative whopper at 2lb at 26 weeks. He is now 7 and completely healthy. NICU was a long, rough old ride though. Look after yourself Flowers

sugarycerealfan · 28/02/2018 09:00

Congratulations op Flowers and all the best to you and your little girl.

IAmBreakmasterCylinder · 28/02/2018 09:10

Congratulations!

Just sending another positive story. My niece’s little girl was born at 24 weeks weighing 2 pounds. It was a long road but she is now a fit and blissfully happy 5 year old with no known lasting effects.

Be kind to yourself and take care Flowers
