So..... did my water just leak? **update! change of plan**
Ahhhh i feel so stupid for not knowing
And this is where its TMI time ladies....
Well... i went to the loo as you do, and by the time i got back to my room, my knik knaks were soaked, it didnt look like CM and it didnt smell like wee (infact i cant bloody tell what it smells like) This is so gross i know lol It wasnt loads either, but it was deff enough for a knicker change. It happened twice.
But now... nothing
What does it sound like to you ladies??
I feel so silly for not knowing... and i also bloody wish i didnt read my horoscope where it said sunday would be life changing, i never normally read/take notice of the stupid things! Probably why im in panic mode over this lol
Ahhhhh after wanting her out for so long im actually too scared now and want her to stay in longer!!
Thanks girlies
Update!
Gotta go hospital now to get checked over! Waters just gushed out in funn force! Eeeeek she could be on her way and for the first time ever i had a correct horoscope! lol
Put a pad on and lie down for half hour or so.... then stand up - I had this and thats what I was told to do. If it is waters then they will leak while you're lying down and run out when you stand up again... if you're really not sure then keep the pad and the MW can check it tomorrow with a little test stick (gross I know but they do it all the time!!)
Don't panic - you should be fine at 36 wks anyway - good luck
I have had this too, i ended up with a bit of a puddle on the floor on friday which resulted in a trip up to the hospital, i was told i had thrush! Didn't really explain the wetness to me but i came on here and heard that infections can cause discharge to become like water, hence leaking etc, i'm still getting it a bit but not as much!
Like ilovebaboo said, if you lie down the baby can't act as a plug so if it is your water it will flow, lying on your side will cause a puddle too if it is your water! Good luck & keep us updated! xx
I too had this last week, was made to lie for 30mins then checked and i was told it wasnt waters it was discharge, o the joys of pregnancy! Lol
Good luck! x
Well i just lied down for about 40 mins, spent another 10 mins trying to persuade myself to move, as i was to scared to see if was actually my waters lol
.....and nothing!!! Not a sausage! But when i went to the loo again, something came out that wasnt wee as i couldnt control it??
Hmmmmmm, tricky business!
If it happens again in the morning im gunna go give the midwife a ring so she can check!
Its so strange, you expect your waters to just gush out, not drip like a tap haha
Don't want to panic you but at antenatal class they did warn us that the waters can drip out...doesn't always have to be a gush! She said babys head could act as like a plug and stop the gush.
Have you got a number to ring for mw or hospital?? Don't think I'd sleep if I was you!! xx
Yeps! Im too pop along tomorrow to get checked over, they said it didnt sound like my waters as it didnt come out when i was lying down, then stood up, but just to be sure!
Its weird everything is absolutley back to normal now, bubs is booting me in the side and nothing has happened since!
