At 16 weeks I started leaking amniotic
fluid. The doctor put me on strict
bedrest and didn't give me much hope for
continuing the pregnancy(only about five
percent). When the doctor told me the
odds, my heart sank. But faith like I
have never known came over me. I prayed
for the life of my baby. People all over
my small town prayed for me and the baby.
My uncle, who is a preacher came and
prayed over us, and I was healed. The
tear in my amniotic sac was fully healed.
I went back to the doctor the next day,
and there was no more leakage. When the
doctors had done all they could do, the
lord stepped in. He gave me this
wonderful gift. My baby is a miracle.

I think all babies are miracles.
Congrats on your amniotic sac 'healing'
it'self.

(why does it say 'guest' in black here but
on the main page it says the username is
'alexis in valdosta'?
I know it's a random question but i've
noticed this before with 'guest' postings
and wondered what's going on?)
to the original poster: i'm glad
everything worked out well. I hope the
rest of your pregnancy goes without a
hitch.

the doctors will test the fluid with a
paper. Amniotic fluid will turn it blue,
I believe. Amniotic fluid also has a
sweet smell to it and is different than a
urine type smell.

All babies are miracles!
If I am not mistaken tears in the sac are
able to repair themselves and to replinish
the fluids.
