On the 13th of January 2012 I was 21 wks + and I started haemorrhaging badly. I went into hospital via ambulance and straight to labour ward where I was told I would probably deliver within 24 hrs due to the amount of blood loss ( 500ml ) . They said it was a threatened miscarriage. 3 days later they sent me home because I stopped bleeding red blood , it turned browny. They didn't know why I'd haemorrhaged and put it down to a burst blood vessel in the placenta. The scan on the following day showed no reason either for the bleed. A week later my waters broke , the back and the front waters in a brown fluid. Then I haemorrhaged again and rushed bk into hospital where they told me I'd deliver within 24 hrs and they would not resuscitate my baby if born as I wasn't 24 weeks, only nearly 23. I had a quick scan because I don't think they believed my waters had gone but it showed they had all gone. My baby heart beat dropped to about 100 . They kept saying he would die if born. 3 days later I was sent home as I'd not delivered and his heart rate went bk up to 160 ! I am now nearly 27 weeks and baby is still alive and no signs of labour. I leak fluid nearly everyday . I go to hospital twice a week for obs and bloods. Every two weeks I have a scan . Last one showed baby's tiny, only 1 Ib 5 oz and small for his gestation. I've had 2 infections which have cleared by anti biotics and I'm at home worried about outcome . Is there anyone out their who has experienced this or similar? How long did you go before labouring. Thanks Emma x
