loss of amniotic fluid at 18 weeks

[haredew]

my water broke at 18 weeks, 2 days later i started bleeding . i have had several ultrasounds the first showed less than 2oz. of fluid. the second, done the following day, showed a slight increase in fluid levels, both showed a strong heartbeat. i am on antibiotics and complete bed rest, the bleeding is very light compared to what it was, and nothing new has happened in 7 days. is it possible for the fluid to increase enough so the baby and lungs will develop properly or am i setting myself up for heartbreak? am i just waiting for my body to miscarrie, or for infection to set in, or does the baby have a chance?

I was 20 weeks pregnant.Dr put me on bed rest.  My dual marker sonography report was  good. But after 2 days my amniotic fluid passed out of my body & the pregnancy got terminate. Its was heartbreaking experience. What is the reason behind fluid passing ?

My sister is going through this right now. She went to the hospital earlier today. I'm so scared for her. She's had been having alot of trouble with trying to have kids for a year or two and we found out late january early february that she was gonna have twins and now this happens. I just can't imagine how she's feeling right now and i pray that nothing bad will happen

I called my mid wife because i was bleeding and i was 5 months along with my son. I told her i need to come in now! she said lets wait tell my next appointment, which was in 2 days so i decided to wait. the next night my water broke at midnight during intercourse with my husband, We rushed to the hospital which we waited in the emergency room for 30 minutes until i freaked out because i was leeking fluid every were then started gushing out blood. As a 19 years old i've never experience anything like this before. i just told the doctor to fix me and save my baby instead, he put me on inducers and said it was for pain which was a lie. They did ultrasounds said the baby was health but scared for there was no fluid inside and he was freaking out with me. I was in labor for 6 hours until i felt movement and lots of pressure which i told the nurse she told me to get up and go to the bathroom and go pee, as i was going pee i had my baby on the toilet which didn't survive from impact.  So the lesson i learned was don't believe what everyone says, even if they went 4 to 6 years to school and have a bachelor's degree. If you fill like somethings wrong go to a hospital which will take care of you. our find  a hospital who will do something about it even though you don't have the best insurance, they don't care but at lease they well care for your baby and your safety don't take the chance of waiting, for if you wait it might me to late.
