Breaking free
At this point I was operating under the idea that if I wasn’t ruptured that I could go home the next day. But the next day they were still not convinced. Despite the fact that my underwear had been 100% dry. No blood, no fluid. So that day was just monitoring. The next morning when the doctor came in, I asked her why we were still concerned about rupture. She agreed that she really didn’t think I was ruptured. So they stopped ABX. At this point I thought maybe I would be freed! But then they went back to the initial issue of the bleeding. Because of the diagnosis of mild preeclampsia they suspected the bleeding was a partial placental abruption. So they wanted me to stay another day or two to monitor for any more bleeding. Finally on Wednesday, April 15th, I was released.
