Wow, I'm so glad both you and your boy are now doing well.
My situation with my first pregnancy didn't get quite as bad as yours but my waters did go nearly 80 hours before I actually had her. I'd planned to birth at the local midwife centre and they kept sending me home as my contractions weren't regular enough. Even though they knew when my waters had gone. Finally on the 3rd day they contacted the main hospital who without any hesitation told them to get me straight in as it had been too long without any fluid around baby.
She was thankfully delivered safely by emergency c section but due to the risk of infection to her was taken to scbu for 48 hours. All because the midwife unit tried to keep me going there (to keep their numbers up as they're at threat of closure).
I'd say to any lady who thinks or knows their waters have gone not to take any crap from hospitals, it's serious and I'd demand to be induced etc straight away to avoid complications etc.
But so glad after all that you have a happy outcome! Congratulations on becoming a mummy!
