My water broke at 26 weeks and 5 days,on July 16th,2010.My due date is 3 mths away,october 17th. The journey for all of us will be long..but we wont walk alone!

The Day Everything Changed..
July 16th,2010
5 pm watching cartoons with JR,when sitting on the recliner I feel myself 'peeing' myself. Went upstairs and peed and took a shower. Decided to lay down for a hour on the bed as JR played on the laptop beside me. Not even 10 minutes later,after laying down on my left side it happened again..what the heck?! After cleaning up for the second time I called the doctor on call and asked what I should do.It took a hour before I got a return call and he said,It's probably nothing and he wasn't worried about it,but he heard real concern in my voice..so he said If it would make me feel better that I could go to the hospital's ER and get examined.
So I called John and he came home,got myself and JR dressed and ready to go..we arrive at Woman Magee Hospital at 8 pm. I'm taken to a exam room,after sitting in ER for about 10 mins. I lay there in a gown waiting and waiting for the doc's to come in and start their exam and asking their hundred questions. They did two exam's and confirmed that my Water did break and I wasn't allowed to leave the hospital until the baby was born. My first thought was OMG-I have to deliver him now,then I thought OMG-I could be here until October,with my luck that is. It was 1 am and I had John and JR go home,since they were so very tired out and I wasn't even in a room yet and they couldn't do anything for me. They went home which was so hard to do..when would I be leaving to be home with them again,ugh frustrating to say the least. Finally at 3am I was moved to room 2739,where I was greeted with warm smiles and friendly hello's. I didn't sleep but a hour,by the time they were done setting me up and getting vitals and blood etc,it was already 6 or 7 am. It was a night to remember and one Im sure I'll never forget,anytime soon.
