MELISSA's PROM Story by Melissa Johnson, Cedartown, GA USA
PROM at 16 + 0 weeks, delivery at 29 + 0 weeks Mail: MJLARRYDOG@AOL.COM Story added 2002-04-12
At 16 weeks of pregnancy my water
broke. I was told that my baby had
less than a 1% chance at survival at
this point. I would probably go into
labor soon and miscarry. At 16 weeks
the baby had no chance of survival.
The doctor offered to terminate the
pregnancy (which they did not consider
a viable pregnancy at only 16 weeks) or
let me wait it out and miscarry on my
own. With lots of thought and prayers
we decided to let God make that
decision and we would accept whatever
He decided was best for us. I kept
leaking fluid for the next 13 weeks. I
was told bedrest may help but then
again maybe not. I tried bedrest for a
few days but then I just couldn't
handle that mentally. So I still went
to work (office work) just to try to
distract my thoughts. At 26 weeks I
went into the hospital to hopefully
wait it out as long as I could delay a
very premature labor. At 29 weeks I
did go into labor and had a beautiful
baby girl (Grace) weighing 2lbs. 15
oz. She only stayed on the ventilator
for approx. 12 hours and then was on
her own. She did not have any of the
scary set-backs we were warned may
happen (like brain bleeds, intestinal
infections). After 6 weeks in the
hospital she came home on a monitor.
Today she is 15 months old and just a
perfectly normal little girl. Looking
back I don't know how we survived such
a diffucult time in our lives; prayers
and faith are all we can come up with.
I didn't know of this website at the
time of my pregnancy. What I would
have given to have heard some positive
stories. If we never get another
miracle again, we cashed in on a big
one with Grace!
