Aa
here I am again
Last week I was bleeding strangely - they sent me home for bed rest, said everything was fine, that they couldn't find a cause for the bleed. Yesterday about 11.30 my waters broke, everyone around me is saying 'don't be so silly, you've peed your self', queue at a-e was phenomenal and I was left waiting around for too long, so I came home, over night when I turned it would trickle out, same as if I sit and then stand - it is straw coloured and doesnt' smell, I know its my waters, I've had 3 kids before, but I am 13 weeks 3 days today and just don't know what to expect.
Its not twins - they gave me an ultra sound last friday after I went to a-e for my bleeding. There has been no progress atall - no pains, well, sometimes, but they don't come to anything, and no sign of infection, that I know of. Leakage has also slowed down, but I think I lost too much for any chance of re-sealing membranes, wondering if the fluids stop replacing themselves after the child has died -- which I expect after the rupture at this stage.
I'm sorry. It sounds like your in early labor, esp. if your waters have broken. The most they'll be able to do is watch you, unless it was twins and only one sac broke. Did you have a Ultrasound yet?
Its not slow, when it first went it filled a night time pad in less than seconds, filled three in five minutes, it trickles and then takes a turn at gushing out. Started to bleed, but it doesn't come as much as the fluids, I'd compare it to the labour I had with my first son - I'm uncomfortable, but nothing much is happening -- hospital make me feel like I shouldn't be there, attitudes with the NHS are terrible, when I was asking questions about the bleed they made me feel very upset, they might as well have asked me why I wanted to know.
i'm sorry about your waters breaking. Get your butt into the hospital! And good luck! maybe it's only a slow leak, and they can do an infusion.
