I'm Currently Feeling: | ummm, water breaking/leaking? (updated) I just had an odd feeling. Not sure what to do... I think my water might be leaking. I just got up and walked into the kitchen and I had a dribble down my leg. When I went to the bathroom I had a bit of mucous ( I have also 3 days ago had 2 large pieces and a few smaller ones come out) and liquid dripping a bit. I have been feeling really crampy, cranky and my tummy was so tight I threw up a couple of times this morning. Oh yeah, and my cervix was starting to open on thursday.
Do you think that this was my water... or maybe I just had an  accident? |

Cause if it doesn't smell and you can't stop then it definitely sounds like your waters breaking! |

I'm Currently Feeling: |  it sound like it might be leaking? try putting on a panty liner and keep an eye onit it will be clear and be odourless but maybe ring l&d and ask them they may want you to go in and check. good luck  |

I'm Currently Feeling: | I'm glad I'm not weird for smelling it...
it's been a trickle, no real gush, but I definately didn't have to go pee at the time. I was just standing in the kitchen.
Should I give it a bit longer cuz it's not constant... just a couple of dribbles so far.
Oh, and baby has been way less active than normal and I was eating like a horse yesterday and then just had a #2 (sorry if tmi) |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Well,you know it wouldn't hurt to check.
Some women can just have a tiny hole and their water can just silently be leaking all day...
So put some panty liner and see if it is damp or wet,if it is then I guess it's time! |

I'm Currently Feeling: | When my waters broke it was just little drops ! You should go to LD, there is a risk of infection if your waters brakes for more than 24h before birth !!!! They do a little test to see if it,s your waters and if it is they'll probably keep you. Good luck ! xx |
