When Louise Adams’ water broke at just 22 weeks, the news was tragic. Doctors said nothing could be done until she was 24 weeks old. So they sent her home to wait for her unborn baby to die. But Louise refused to give up the fight. After doing some research, she started drinking over 11 liters of water a day to save the baby’s life.
The two parents were shocked when the doctors told them there was nothing left to do, all they could do was monitor her, pregnancy loss was inevitable and could happen at any time, the fetus had only a 5% chance of survival, but the mother’s heart said otherwise: “I could feel him moving, I could not stand with my hands folded, without doing anything.”
She discovered on the internet that mothers in her situation sometimes drink a lot of water to replace the lost amniotic fluid. , The more water the mother drinks, the more the fetus drinks and urinates. His excretions are a great source of amniotic fluid.
Although doctors were skeptical, the mother began drinking more than 11 liters of water a day, locked herself in the house, took steroids to help the baby’s lungs develop, and antibiotics to prevent infections, and at 8 months the baby was born healthy.
He is now 6 months old and is healthier and happier than ever. He proved to the doctors that they were wrong, and the mother, whom everyone said was wrong, proved to them that fighting for her child was the only good thing she could do.
