Has your water broken?

Dum vita est, spes est
While there is life, there is hope.

The site I first found (and most women find) after rupture, kanalen.org/prom, is currently down.  BUT– I am so excited to announce they have a new site: inkan.se/prom. It’s such an amazing resource.  I am still glad you found my blog, though.  You can find a copy of kanalen.org/prom’s list of instructions to follow post-pprom here .  These instructions are essential if you have ruptured very early.

Above all, do NOT give up hope.  This is a terrible pregnancy complication, I know you are scared.  Despite what your doctor may tell you, there are babies born every day whose mothers ruptured as early as 12 weeks (some even earlier).  Many of these babies not only survive, but thrive.  As hopeless as your situation feels, you have every chance of bringing your baby home.  You are your baby’s champion, the one who will fight and never give up on them & they know this.

There are many channels of support available to you.

Feel free to email me:  brandy [at] superboyclark [dot] com

Other places to find support are:

The pPROM Facebook group

The BabyCenter pPROM Support Group

You can find studies about starting vitamins C & E post-rupture here.  The details about the vitamins and supplements I took are listed on this page.

If you have any questions or if I can help you in any way, please email me.
