At 31wks 3days I noticed that my
Braxton Hicks contractions were
becoming very regular, with 3 per
hour. I also had some back pain. I
had my next doctor appointment in two
days, so I decided not to worry too
much. my doctor didn't seem too
concerned about my symptoms. Three
days later, my water broke while I was
taking a bath. I had hoped I was
imagining things, but 2 hours later I
was at my local hospital, where they
told me I would have a new baby within
48 hours. They transferred me to the
nearest hospital with a NICU. Luckily
it was only a half hour away. I ended
up being induced at 34wks 6days.
After only 7 hours of labor I had a
beautiful son. He was 5lbs 12oz and
had respiratory distress syndrome. He
only had to spend 7 days in the NICU.
Now he's a chubby, healthy 6 week old
baby.
