TMTM There was no reason for my PPROM, it just happened .... driving home from Yoga! We have a history of quick births (for 3 generations) and no one has gone to 40 weeks, but usually it was between 37-39 weeks. Even with that I never really believed that I would go early, and certainly not that early, and my OB said there isn't a lot of research and generally these things aren't genetic, but it may be in our family. We haven't had any further investigation so it will be a wait and see!
Next time I will be monitored quite closely from 26 weeks to see if we can find any signs of impending labour, as I progressed so quickly. Also if I PPROM next time or if I start getting contractions, we will be going straight to the hosy. Last time we got there about 1hour 20 after the PPROM, CTX had started 45 min after the PPROM 5 min appart, and within another 45min I had progressed to 8cm bub born 1 hour later.
Keep resting up hun!! I jsut noticed all your children are school age, that will take the load of during the day, hope the older ones can help out more!! xxoo
Bel - OMG you are in an identical situation to a friend of mine (with the same name too!), also was preg with twins and went into PTL at 23 weeks, although it was about 12 months ago, she was on strict bed rest the whole time and made it to 34 weeks, before they let things progress naturally!!
