I woke up at 3 am all wet, made a joke that I peed myself and changed clothes. Within seconds, my underwear was wet again and it wasn't urine. Have been in the hospital since 3 am. Doctor thinks my water broke, and I'm only 24 weeks. Sonogram results showed a closed cervix and a happy baby boy who actually showed us the finger (believe me when I say it has been the highlight of this entire ordeal). Waiting now to see what the doc recommends but I'm still leaking fluid. He did state that Westchester med hospital, which specializes in premies won't even take me unless I'm 25 weeks. This hospital is not equipped to care for our little guy should he come so early. That brought on a whole new slew of emotions and I'm hoping the baby measures big enough for 25 weeks?, maybe Westchester will take me in that case. Also got the first steroid shot for the lungs. Will keep you updated as I find out more. Please keep my little guy in your thoughts and prayers. He is a spunky little fighter! Trying to keep it together here.
My cervix looks good and Westchester, ny is taking me in! Im in hudson valley, so it was either that or a hospital 2 1/2 hours away in Lehigh, pA. Westchester has an excellent prenatal unit so I'm glad we are going there. My ob thinks there is a leak somewhere but the baby has enough fluid and cervix is in place at this point and so long as my condition doesn't deteriorate, they will just continue to keep me in the hospital and to let me cook him a little longer. Thank you do much everyone for your kind words, prayers and thoughts!
Ok so I'm all situated in the hospital and looks like ill be spending the next 10 weeks here. Hopefully baby will continue cooking while the amniotic fluid keeps leaking thank you everyone for reaching out and for your kind words. Your well wishes and prayers continue to give me strength.
Thoughts and Prayers coming your way! Keep us posted on how things are going. I wish you the best and hope everything will be ok for you and the little guy!

Thoughts and prayers. Are you in Westchester, pa? I'd have them get in touch with other hospitals that work with younger babies. I asked at my last appointment and I know Abington goes with 24weeks, I'd imagine some in the city do too.

@apickett925- if she were in Westchester, PA that baby would totally go to CHOP so I doubt it..and I know at CHOP and the hospital where I used to work 24 weeks would definitely be viable so I'm guessing she's elsewhere.
Glad to hear little man is still looking so good- Prayers you can keep him in there a bit longer or get to a hospital where they can handle a little guy! Keep us updated!
