in high risk hospital, water ruptured help!

gfornkohl

I been gone for over a week...unfortunately everything went down hill....

My cerclage was redone last thursday because the baby sac was bulging down past my first cerclage...the doctor had no idea how I hadn't fully ruptured at that point. So they used balloons to push baby back up and then resewed my cervix.

Unfortunately on sunday I started leaking fluid and I do have a leak in my membranes. I still have plenty of fluid but doctors are worred about contractions and infection.

So far my white blood cell count iso nly 10,000 its not horrible...I have been leaking fluid roughly every 3 to 4 hours a small gush wll come out...But ive gone 7 hours today with no gush

 I am 21wks and 5 days....has anyone had this happen or know of any stores....My normal doctor sent me to a high risk hospital/doctors to treat me ... They will intervine with baby at 23 weeks if he comes but not before obviously. They have advised me that he may have defects if born that early and asked me to induce early. I declined at this time. If i begin to develope the blood born infection I said we can re address the situation until then im hanging on. I have zero signs of infection and baby is moving around and kicking like crazy.

any advice or stories ... id love to hear

ps my mom brought up all my stuff to hospital so now i have my computer since I wont be leaving until baby is born

A close friend of mine had this happen recently. She was 22 weeks when her water broke. They were able to keep the baby in until 32 weeks! He is a happy, healthy 4 month old today. Hope everything goes smoothly for you!

Hang in there and get yourself prepared for a super long hospital stay because that little bean is staying in there for at least 10 more weeks:)  and no infection!!!  Keep us posted, and positive vibes only!!!!

There's a mom on the May board DrRx who had a similar thing happen. She just posted yesterday the birth story and pics of her little girl. You may want to read her story or message her.

I'm sorry your going though this t&p with you.

good luck to you, hang in there!

I don't know the exact medical cause, but with my nephew, my SIL stayed in the hospital for months while they kept her from delivering way too early (like she did with her first pregnancy). It worked- he still came early and spent some time in NICU but I have a happy, healthy 3 yo nephew!

Aww, I'm sad. I hope you are able to get to term (at least), if not longer. You just worry about keeping that baby nestled away inside you!

I am so sorry to hear about your situation. I can't imagine how stressed and fearful you must be. I do not have any experience with this sort of thing, but my advice is to surround yourself with positive, supportive people who love you and can care for you. Being in a hospital can be exhausting both mentally and physically. I will be praying for you and your little one! Please keep us updated!

I don't have any advice, but I wish you, your LO, and your family the strength needed. Sending hugs, prayers and best wishes your way. Also, there is a lady on the May 2012 board that had her LO at 27 weeks. You may want to look her up and also the premie board.

I looked her up for you if you wanted and her user name is DrRx on the May Board. And correction, she had her at 26 weeks. 

Still free to be me

I have no advice, but a friend of a friend had a similar experience. Her water broke around 20 or 21 weeks (I think), and she managed to keep LO cooking until after 30 weeks.  She did not get an infection, but LO was born looking kind of different because of the low fluid levels...He is now just fine...Good luck.  I am sending positive thoughts...

Good luck. Hang in there. I hope everything is ok with you and little one!
