Hi there. My pregnancy was never an easy one as I had lots of bouts of light bleeding and pain but at 23 weeks my waters fully broke. I was in hospital for one week and then sent home to look after my two year old. I had no meds other than steroid shot. I tried to rest as much as possible. I managed to get to 30 weeks when I developed signs of an infection so they did an emergency c section. My son was born and made no attempt to cry or breathe so was rushed to NICU. He spent 7 weeks on the unit. He had sensory issues for a while, he always has a bad time with a cold and he eats an extremely limited diet, but is doing great at school, he's fun, he is on the 50th centile for weight and height and is absolutely adorable. Ladies, if your waters have broken please have faith and hang on in there. I remember searching the internet like crazy for good ending stories and this is why I'm writing this one. I know it's scary as hell but things MIGHT JUST WORK OUT OKAY. I hope you are lucky xxx
