This pregnacy has been nothing but troble. At 18 weeks we had an altrosound done at the hospital every thing look great! We found out it was a girl! 4 days after that I was at the hospital, I had pink discarge they said every thing was ok. 5 days after that I was back because of heavy bleeding they said my plecenta was only 3 cm away that that is why I was bleeding. The altrosound showed nothing wrong and plenty of fluid. then on 11-29-02 (19 weeks 5 days gestaion) My water broke . I thought at first I peed on my self but, I called the hospital just incase. They said to put a pad on and call back in an hour. After 5 min, my pad was soaked. I called back and they told me to come in. I lost all my fluid that night and in the many altrosonds they did they couldn't see any fluid. They asked me to induce, but I couldn't I could fell her move. I couldn't do it.
I spent 8 more days in the hospital trying to keep me there. But because of the fact that I was only 20 weeks and the baby couldn't survie. So they sent me home 12-7-02 with no hope and antibiotics. I am on Ampicillin 500mg 4 times a day, take temp every 4 hours(over 99.5 go to hospital), and total bed-rest. It is now 4 1/2 days scence I left the hospital. I have 19 more days to vablity.(24 weeks) I know she most likely will not live but I am hoping for at least one day. So I could bond with her. I will write agin when I know any thing
