Amber's PROM Story by Amber, Lansing, MI USA
PROM at 19 + 3 weeks, delivery at 26 + 4 weeks Mail: aedwards47@hotmail.com Story added 2004-03-24
This was my first pregnancy and a very
stressful one. I began having heavy
bleeding at 10weeks and then again at 14
weeks. Ultrasound showed a blood clot
behind my placenta causing the bleeding.
I continued to spot and was put on bed
rest at 17 weeks. I woke up at 19w3days
to lots of light brown watery
"bleeding". I thought it was strange
that it was so watery but I waited until
my doctors appointment 3 days later to
tell my doctor about it. At this
appointment the ultrasound showed less
than 1 cm of fluid.
My ob refered us to a specialist who
highly recommended terminating the
pregnancy. He gave us all of the scary
statistics and basically gave us a
70-90% chance of our baby not surviving.
Since terminating was never an option
for my husband and I, I continued bed
rest and weekly ultrasounds. I never
accomulated more than 1cm of fluid.
After spending Christmas day and New
Years eve in labor and delivery with
contractions, I was admited to the
hospital at 25weeks 6 days.
The following Sunday 26weeks 4 days I
woke up to heavy bleeding and
contractions and was given mag sulfate.
However this did not stop my
contractions and our beautiful baby
girl, Ava Therese, was born naturally.
She is currently in the NICU and is
doing very well. PROM causes a lot of
stress in a pregnancy but the outcome is
worth everything!
