Any Spontaneous Preterm Labors?

Question

There is 0 reasoning or evidence to explain why I gave birth to my 29 Weeker last year. Was anyone else claimed to be ‘healthy’ with random preterm labor?

Answer

i also have no idea why my water broke at 32 weeks. they didn’t give me any reason, i was healthy throughout my checkup.

Answer

Same here. Totally normal pregnancy.  Water spontaneously broke yesterday at 30 wks 2 days. They are trying to keep her in until 34wks

Answer

I delivered at 28 weeks 4 years ago. i just started bleeeding sooo heavy and losing my plug at the same time i was in pain. My whole pregnancy i was healthy and baby was fine come to find out i had premature seperation of the placenta .

Answer

Water broke at 28 weeks exactly, right after I left the doc for my glucose screening!  Was told I want leaving the hospital until baby was born.  Tried making it to 34 weeks, but only made it to 30+6.  No issues/problems/scares anything up until that point.  Everything seemed perfect.  I wish I knew what went wrong bc now I'm afraid to have a repeat if we have another kid.  I dont know if I can go through it all again.

Answer

I had preterm contractions around 20-ish weeks and on. No idea why. They just called it a “cranky uterus.” My water broke on its own at 34+4. Didn’t find out until later my body was starting to go into preeclampsia. Diagnosed with postpartum preeclampsia 5 days pp.

Answer

I did. No explanation why. Doctor says it just happens sometimes. I was absolutely miserable by 34 weeks when I had him. I think my body is just not good at being pregnant and was over it. Lol.

Answer

Same. Water broke at 32 weeks and they kept me on bedrest til 34.. totally normal, healthy pregnancy with no risk factors.

Answer

Yep.  I delivered at 32 weeks with no explanation and no warning.  I’d had some weak irregular contractions for a couple of days, but they checked me out and said I wasn’t in labor and baby wasn’t stressed.  I came home at 5pm.  I ate dinner and I called back at 9pm to say the contractions felt stronger (still irregular and 10+ minutes apart) and they said come back in.  I got to the hospital at 10:30pm and I was 8cm dilated.  No time for steroids for his lungs. I started pushing at 12:30am, my water broke and it was black with meconium. He was born at 12:45am. They checked for infections and found none.  They gave no reason for his early arrival or for the meconium.

Answer

My water randomly broke for no reason at 34+4. No pre-term risks or symptoms prior to this. Contractions started within 10 minutes and were 2-4 minutes apart within an hour. My daughter was delivered 6 hours after my water broke. While she was in the NICU, a nurse mentioned that there was a large pressure drop in the area around the time I went into labor due to a tropical storm in the gulf. She said it’s common to see a lot of women go into labor when that happens. Labor and delivery and mother baby unit was so full while I was there and then it was a ghost town the next week.

Answer

With my first, my pregnancy was perfect except for what they said was an irritable uterus. After a night of many contractions at 29 weeks, they said my cervix was closed but in the ultrasound, it was measuring only 1 cm when it should have been 3cm. I stayed for a few days with irritable uterus lasting til I had him at 37 weeks.
With my second, we kept an eye on it, having internal ultrasounds regularly to check. at 20 weeks, 3.5cm and perfect. At 24 weeks, 3cm in length and dilated to 1cm. At 27 weeks, my cervix had dramatically shorted to .8cm. I spontaneously went into labor at 32 weeks and had her. 
If we didn't know my cervix shorts around  27 weeks from my first pregnancy, we never would have had an answer.
