Thinking of you and hoping all will be well! My sisters water broke and she delivered her daughter at 26 weeks 2 days. She is doing wonderful and should be out of the nicu next month at around 36 weeks. Perfectly
Healthy! Good luck!!! -
Please let us know if you need anything!!!
-
Oh dear! Thinking of you!
-
Goodness! what news. Hang in there. keep us updated!

Thinking of you!!! I went into unexplained preterm labor at 30w and delivered at 30w5d and now I have a very active and healthy 2.5 year old! I'm currently pregnant with #2 and the irony is she is three days past due so far. Hang in there you are doing great!!!

@bluestriped bee: 1) I'll pm you the contact info. 2) Magnesium probably saved Dylan's life, but my docs would not let me stay on it after my water broke. 3) For me, the night I went to the hospital I was in denial. Day 2 was probably the worst day of my life...when I realized my life just stopped on a dime and I wasn't leaving the hospital. But work and the nursery and all of the other stuff...it just gets done. I had my shower a couple of months after Dylan was born. It wasn't the same cheery affair, but it was really sweet having actual pictures of him at the shower. So really hang in there the next couple of days. If it happens quickly, the babies won't be coming home for quite awhile and you'll have plenty of time to get everything together. So basically, don't worry about anything besides yourself and your babies.
Wishing you lots of luck. Glad you got the steroid shots. They really work wonders and like @MsMini said, 28 weekers typically do really well.

Yikes! I'll be thinking of you and your babies. It sounds like you are all in great hands, so I hope they stay in!

Thinking of you!!

Thinking of you and those precious babies! Hope they will stay in there as long as possible. Don't worry about anything else, especially the nursery. My baby slept in her rock and play next to our bed for the first couple of months. Keeping you and your babies in my thoughts and prayers for their safe arrival.
-
Oh my friend! I'm so proud of you for staying to positive and stress free. Sending lots of positive thoughts that the babies with hang tight a bit longer!
-
What a whirlwind! So glad you and the babies are safe and sending good vibes for them to stay comfy for a while! Everything else will work itself out. Take care of yourself!
-
Oh, wow! I'm sorry you're dealing with this! I'll be thinking of you and the babies!
-
@bluestriped bee: sending lots of prayers your way

Thinking of you and hoping those babies stay put!

Seeing this thread scared me! You're amazing for being so calm (which is awesome for your babies too)! Thinking of you and your babies and hope they stay put for a few more weeks!!

I'm so sorry! I had PROM at 30w but only made it to 32. I hope you make it to 34! It's hard being in the hospital that Kong, good luck dear. Please stay off your feet as much as possible! I'll be thinking of you and your babies
-
@bluestriped bee: oh my goodness! Will be thinking of you. Also amazed at your calm, but luckily you are pretty far along! I hope those babies stay put a little longer!!!
-
@bluestriped bee: Praying for you, rest and take care
-
Glad you are okay! Hope things are okay!
-
Oh my! Thinking of you!
-
Oh man! Glad to hear you're still in good spirits (and yes, I totally think of the HS dance when I read PROM). Hoping the babies keep baking, but you're comfortable as well. 6 weeks in hospital bed rest doesn't sound fun!
-
Thinking of you! Hope the babies stay cooking for all the time they need, and you don't go stir crazy in the hospital!
-
Oh no! Glad that you went in to be checked! I know it must be hard to be facing such a long hospital stay but you are doing the best you can for those babies! Start binge watching fun shows on Netflix.
-
Good luck and stay in there little ones!
-
Oh no! Thinking good thoughts!
-
I am thinking of you and praying for that the babies will stay in there, nice and healthy, till 36 weeks! I can't imagine how crazy it is to suddenly loose all the time you thought you had, so I hope mentally/emotionally you are okay too! I guess your DH will just have to do everything...
-
Sending good vibes your way!!!!
-
Thinking of you
-
@bluestriped bee: Yeesh, how scary. BEST OF LUCK with your bed rest and I will be rooting for 34 week babies!!!
-
thinking of you
-
@bluestriped bee: wow, hang in there! Hospital bed rest is tough so take care of yourself mama.
Also as a side note since you've done all the research, technically you have PPROM (pronounced pea-prom to those in the business!). Preterm premature rupture of membranes. PROM just means ruptite before labor, you could be 40 wks and PROM if you aren't contracting.
-
@MenagerieMama: Ahh, cool. I did see PPROM out there once or twice but didn't know what the difference was. Thanks!!
-
I'm so sorry! I know how hopefully you were to keep those babies in there until the end of September. Thinking of you!
I know two people who were put on hospital bed rest. One was in for 6 weeks before she delivered and the other was in about two. Both were pregnant with singletons.

@bluestriped bee: Hi there - I have a similar story - my water broke at 28 weeks (although I wasn't carrying twins). I showed up at the hospital and was also told we were staying there until baby came - which he did at 31 weeks 1 day. He is now a healthy, awesome 18 month old. PLEASE reach out to me if you'd like to chat about the ANYTHING at all. I remember vividly being where you are now. I got lots of reassuring information, so please let's be in touch. (I have no idea how to send you a private message with my email address - maybe you can send one to me?). I hope to hear from you!
-
Sending lots of good thoughts to you and those babies! I hope we don't get to meet them for many weeks to come!
