My water broke at work yesterday afternoon. I was 33 weeks yesterday. I called Dr. and headed to the hospital. They've got me on antibiotics, steriods to mature the lungs and bed rest. My fluid at my BPP on Tuesday was a little over 10, today it measured 3.7. . . so I was definitley ruptured. The nurse checked me when I got there, and my cervix was high, and very tightly closed - she said not even a pinhole dialated. This afternoon my contractions have picked up some and I'm having some pink tinged discharge, so I'm hopeful I'll continue progressing. I get my second steroid injection this evening and they are planning on delivering via C-Section Saturday morning if nothing is looking more favorable. . . I was really hoping for a VBAC, but overall, I want what's best for the baby in the end.
Maybe send me some labor vibes tonight and tomorrow if you can, I'll keep you all updated. Right now contractions are 5 - 20 minutes apart, and not strong feeling at all. Occasionally, I'll have one that I can really feel, but nothing painful, maybe just a little distracting.
I'm really loving my Dr - He's being great, neo-natologist is great, he was one of dd's Dr.'s 12 years ago, although I don't remember him.
FYI, right now my Bishop's score is a 1, so it's looking like a probable C-section.
