PPROM at 21 weeks + 1 day

Hi. I recently found out I PProm at 21 weeks and 1day and was admitted into hospital for 48 hours for observations then discharged as no sign of infection and fluid level appears normal for now. I will continue to be monitored but so scared of going into labour early and things changing quickly. Has anyone got any advice they can share please and struggling to detect how much fluid is too much. I am leaking little bits throughout the day 🙏

I was prom at around I think 28 first time the test said yes but as they couldn’t see anything sent me home I went a second time it confirmed again stayed over night . My fluid levels remained normal I went 2x a week for monitoring until they offered me to be induced at 36 weeks - this was as my baby was small Early birth they said possible as u may go into labour early but this is usually when they can see fluid is gone if i remember right

If your concerned about the leaking and feel like it’s alot don’t hesitate to go in and get checked I went in multiple times when I had concerns

Aww thank you for replying. Did you get admitted into hospital for a long time? Did you take it easy or carry on with life? Xx

I ppromd at 22wks and at first I had no infections, I was kept in my local hospital for 3days , then transferred to a Top London level3 hospital incase I went into labour. I was admitted, had blood test daily and at 24wks I had caught an infection and I had to give birth, thankfully I did naturally and he weighed 690g , He will be 3yrs old this March! As we was away from our local area I did have to leave my son at the nicu which was the hardest thing EVER! Luckily we were given a room at Ronald mcdonald and he stayed in London for around 3months , then transferred to out local when stable to move, and he stayed in the sbcu until his actual due date ❤️

I had PPROM at 30 weeks with my first pregnancy. They induced me at 37 weeks after weekly monitoring. My son is a healthy 2 year old now. Any questions don’t hesitate to message me x

I pprom at 20 +3 did modified bed rest from 20 + 3 to 28 weeks , then was admitted from 30 weeks onwards, delivery was at 34 weeks, my twins were born healthy , 10 days in hospital and then discharged xx

Only 24 hours I tried to take it easy personally, but I also have 5 year old with extra needs so I had to carry on as much as I could . Do what you feel is best and is better on your body x

That’s amazing that you didn’t give birth until 36 weeks. Thank you for all the positive messages ❤️❤️ Hard to navigate as feel absolutely fine so don’t feel I need to bed rest as such but will certainly be trying to lead a calmer lifestyle as I do have a very demanding job xxx

Hey I'm in a similar boat. I'm not sure when I first started leaking around 21weeks though, but I had it confirmed at 22+4. I'm 26+0 today . I know how hard and anxiety inducing it is! I went to hospital today because I've been stressing about reduced movements but it was all fine. How are you doing? ❤️
