I just found this site as we are
considering getting pregnant again and
wanted to tell a very happy story.
Everything was going very well. A
little bit of nausea and dizziness in
the first trimester and a "low lying
placenta", but my midwife concluded
the risk of placenta previa to be
almost non-existent. In April 2000 my
water broke in the middle of the
night. The obstetrician gave us
a "glimmer" of hope following the
ultrasound, indicating there was a
fair amount of fluid. I was given
steroids and immediately put on
antibiotics and in-hospital bed rest.
After two weeks in hospital, I was
sent home on bed rest. One week later
I started to bleed, but everything was
still fine. 2 weeks later I went into
labour and delivered our beautiful
Patrick. He was in the NICU, primarily
with pulmonary problems and was
discharged 8 weeks later. He is now 22
months old, very happy, very healthy
and right on track for his actual
developmental age. We are truly
blessed.
