Need T&P's
Got a call from our lawyer a little bit ago that our EM may be delivering soon. She was leaking fluids and not sure if it was amino fluid or not. She may deliver tonight or tomorrow if it is, which is too soon. She hit 31 weeks today. Forget about us not being prepared I just hope mom and baby are ok. We should get a call back on what is going on in an hour or so.
Update: Thanks everyone for your T's and P's. Still not sure exactly what happened yet, but EM was kept overnight, baby was monitored. They didn't see any stress with the baby and sent the EP's home. Feeling very relieved that Baby P isn't getting here too soon. Every extra week counts.

Come home, baby A!
My T&P are with you! I sure hope that little guy/gal can hang on a little longer!
Such a scary time, but just as a little unsolicited encouragement: my good friend had her twins at 32 weeks and even though they required a lengthy NICU stay, they are beautiful and perfect in every way. They are now 3 years old, and very smart, funny and healthy!
I was thinking the same thing. I know I made that mistake. One good push on a full bladder from baby can make anyone think their water broke. Hope that's all it is.
Will keep EM and baby in T&P.

And to reiterate what some others have said, lots of babies born at 31-32 weeks turn out to be just fine. Modern medicine has come a long way, so do a little bit of research and talk to your pediatrician about what to expect, but remain encouraged. Baby might need some extra help at first, but he/she has a great chance to turn out just fine.
If you're a God-fearing person (I am), pray. I carry this one with me at all times: "Rejoice in the Lord always; again, I will say, Rejoice. Let your gentleness be know to everyone. The Lord is near. Do not worry about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your request be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and mind in Christ Jesus." (Philippians 4:4-7)
