30 weeks and the baby wants to come out.
Here is a story. The whole pregnancy till today was amazingly perfect. Today suddenly my water broke. I did nothing, i felt perfect. So... in a hospital now scared to death. I hope my baby girl and i will be fine.
Did anyone have preemie this early? Or maybe somebody's friend? I just need to hear successfully stories to keep myself positive. Thank you, all, august moms!

My daughter was born at 32 weeks and weighed 3 13. She is 11 years old now. I'm in a group on Facebook called Preemie support and awareness. I recommend that you join...they are a great help....it's a scary and emotional time, I know, but she will be just fine :)
UPDATE! The baby girl was born after 10 days being at the hospital. The labor lastet only 2 hours. She is 3.6 lb and 42 cm long at the age 31+4. She is at the NICU. And will be there till August. Sad... but they say she is doing great. Praying for my little girl. Oh, she was born screaming like any other not premature babies. Wow. Kind of earlier than i was expecting.
Its amazing how we have our plan on how things should be you know labor plan and baby says "no mom its my way:)" lol keep us posted on ur baby and u. Hopefully ur baby girl can 'cook' a little longer :)
Yes, i am staying at the hospital till delivery. They don't let me to leave since water broke. I hope to stay pregnant for next 2-4 weeks. .... but they say it can happen any moment.
That's goood to hear, are they keeping you in the hospital till you deliver, or are they letting you go home?
that is so good to hear. Your baby will make leaps and bounds in 2 weeks and hopefully you can have some peace of mind. Sending blessings your way!!
Thank you ladies! Some updates. After 48 hours i am off magnesium, had steroid shots for her lounges and will be allowed to stand up for a little bit soon. The baby looks good. Heartbeat is good. I still have 4 cm of liquid for her to swim around :-) being positive. Next goal is to keep her there gor 2 more weeks at least!
I was born art 28 weeks and had to stay in the hospital for 3 months. Now that was almost 27 years ago. Now I'm pregnant with my first child. The medical staff and the technology are just amazing today. I have total confidence that your baby will survive. I will say some prayers for you and your baby. God bless. Please keep us posted.
I was born at 30 weeks and was healthy. Your little one will be fine. Good luck.
You'll be fine and they can hold off the labor with medication. Happened to my sister in law and held off for a couple weeks. Put her on antibiotics and constantly monitored the baby. He was born at 34 weeks. Your baby girl will do fine ^_^ I agree she may spend some time in the NICU.
OMG with todays technology, your baby girl will be fine!! Im guessing she would be ablout 3-4 lbs by now. Ive seen babies that were born 1-2 lbs. She may spend some time in the Nicu, but she will be fine!!! Good Luck and keep us posted!
I have two happy prem stories, one family member had her little girl at 25 weeks she was 1lb6 and is now fine and my friends sister had her baby boy at 24 weeks, 1lb5 and he's home now too and doing well. Have faith, it'll all be okay. X
My sister in law just had her baby at 31 weeks fairly close to u. Her water also broke baby is healthy and got to go home only a week later!:) best of luck to u both and prayers for ur little one to be healthy aNd strong!God bless u momma!!
I had an emergency c section at 25 wks with my son 12 yrs ago. He stayed in the hospital for 3 months. He was 1 lb 10 oz at birth and not expected to survive. They told me if he did he was most likely going to have mental disabilities and physical disabilities. He's now a perfectly healthy normal 12 yr old boy :) he is smaller than most kids his age but his dad and I r not very big ppl. I wish u all the best and good vibes r being sent ur way on a healthy baby girl!
You and baby should be okay, unfortunatly once your water breaks there's no stopping labor or having you hold off. You have to have the baby. Keep us updated and best wishes to you and baby. I can't wait to hear the rest of your story.
One of my friends had her baby at either at 24 or 25 weeks her baby is in nicu unit and he is doing pretty good so I would only think that 30 weeks your baby will make it and will be healthy he or she was just ready to see the world dont worry babe you 2 will be fine:)
Had my oldest son at 32 weeks. He is fine today. They technology and advancements made are wonderful. Best wishes to you and your baby for the long road ahead.
