30 week preemie (2 lbs 15 oz) PPROM
at the 19th week of pregnancy Leannes water broke. Known as PPROM preterm premature rupture of membrane. The doctors said after PPROM 25% make it past the first week without going into labor. We would have to hold off delivering and infection for at least 5 weeks to have a chance. One day i asked the doctor what our chances were now that we made it past the first week. he told me it was impossible to give statistics due to every situation being different, but he would guess we had a 1 in 15 chance. We held off 11 weeks. This is our journey


Thank you for this video. My daughter was born at 28 weeks also, and we had to use a container for her bath. It was a very scarey time. She was born Feb. 5, and next year we are walking together in the March of Dimes. I’m a Christian’s and a lot of Christian’s pray for things like this not to happen to them, but having this happen was a major blessing. If we always prayed for God to keep us from these things, we would never be able to put ourselves in another person’s shoes. Thank you.
Beautiful film! Thank you for sharing….so good to see so much hope. I am 31 weeks now and she will be here soon….I am scared, but this gave me hope! Be so blessed, Greetings Elze (Netherlands)
