Q: 19 weeks and water brakes!!!

As I sit and type this, I'm sitting in the hospital with a broken water bag at 19 weeks pregnant scared to death. They're going to try and hold off labor for 5 weeks, and then possibly have me deliver. I was just sending this NOT as a question like "what should I do" but I'm asking for prayers PLEASE!!

READ BELOW THIS ONE FIRST:
as my insides are not strong enough to hold the most important things, like placenta and water bag. hence why I lost Serenitee at 23 weeks in 2005. These doctors are going to try everything they can do to keep infection from the water bag being broke away from me. And they are doing everything they can do to save my wonderful Hailey! So, as I ask with everything in my body for EVERYONE to keep the prayers coming! Even if your not the praying kind of person just one prayer can make a difference! Thanks to everyone for all the prayers keep them coming! â?¥ xoxoxox Lisa,Zack and Baby Hailey! â?¥

Hey Ladies, Thank you all for ALL prayers! As of right now they have sent me home, and I am on complete bed rest with LOTS AND LOTS of water. When they gave me my scan Wednesday after my water broke it showed very little amniotic fluid around the baby. I've been feeling her move tho and her heart rate is 148 BPM .. So, she is still doing good. I have been seeing a specialist once a month, but they have moved it up to once a week to get ultra sounds. They sent me home for basically one reason.... Because I REFUSED to induce labor! I'm sorry she is still alive there is NO WAY I am taking my daughters life even if there is a very little chance of her surviving this. When I first got to the hospital (small town hospital) They tried and tried to talk me into inducing, I asked what were the chances of her surviving if I just hold off and wait to see what happens. He (the doc) told me it 1 in 100 that I will seal back up and baby will let carry for AT LEAST 5-6 weeks. Well yesterday he came..

Wednesday morning at 1:40 am I gave birth to a beautiful baby girl. She was 8.3 oz and 9 inches long, She fought for her little life for 3 hours or so. Then was pronounced my angel baby at 4:15 am. I would like to thank everyone who prayed and kept me in their thoughts through the week! Any advice on how to get through this difficult time, even tho we have been through it once before I think it gets harder and harder.

OK.... Here's the news.. baby is great for now. Hailey's heart beat is 160 BPM!! and she was moving like crazy! with her little legs crossed like a lady and her arms folded behind her head. LoL everything looks great accept the amniotic fluid is still very low. I'm seeing my docs every week sometimes twice a week. He said they aren't going to hospitalize me until it is time to get aggressive with the labor/pregnancy and baby. Steroids aren't an option at this point for her lugs and other organs because they could make me start contracting. (what we don't want right now) He still has me on bed rest and very limited activities, He said "NO WATER SKYING IN THE KENTUCKY RIVER!" (dang it that sounds like fun)... also IF/WHEN I make it to 34 weeks he will deliver her then, and suggested for me to do a C-Section, because of the complications I'm having. Another thing is, this will be my last and only try for a baby.
