My pPROM Journey
pPROM - or preterm premature rupture of membranes - is when your water bag breaks and you leak amniotic fluid. While this is a scary situation, there is nothing that can really be done about it. As I have experienced this, I have had time to join support groups and learn more about what exactly pPROM is. Though I am not a doctor or even in the medical field, I have reached out to other ladies around the world via these support groups and collected some of my own data based on their experiences. If this happens to you, please visit your doctor or the hospital right away to be seen immediately. Always seek medical advice when in doubt. My Story I had ruptured at 18 weeks and 4 days. It was hard to hear that my water had broken and the baby might not make it. When we finally went to see a perinatologist, or high risk doctor, he was optimistic on the outcome. He though we would be able to continue the pregnancy and make it hopefully past 28 weeks. He did give us hope which was good
