I had just went to the doctor the day before and everything was fine. Very early the next morning I started having contractions. 2 hours later at the hospital my water broke. They tried to rebuild the fluid around my little boy, but it did not work. The next day, I started running a fever and they drew blood, later the said I had some type of infection and they would have to induce my labor.
At 7:08am, I gave birth to Dante' Jr. He was so precious and tiny. He weighed 1 lb. and 1/2ounce. They said some type of infection caused my water to break. They have no clue to where the infection came from or even what it was.
I was told that this does not happen often and that they can't guarntee that it want happen again.
All I can say is why me...why my littel boy?
