Waters Leaking?? (TMI)

bambikate · Dec 3rd, 2008, 14:21 PM

Hi ladies,

First of all, sorry for the TMI. I'm just after some advice please. I started losing my plug this morning after my sweep yesterday. I called the MW as it was a very light green colour but she said because of the consistency she said that can be normal.

She said that if it was watery and light green to call again. She also said that if my waters go, call again.

The thing is, I think I might be cuz the pad was also damp but I can't tell! What is that rule with putting a pad on and the time limit etc....

Thank you x x

When mine went they went with a gush and pads were soaked in a moment. But you'd know if your waters were doing that without the pad. If they're leaking slowly I guess it would be harder to tell. But presumably if there is more than normal discharge (and that you're not wetting yourself!) then any dampness will be an indication of your waters?

Keep changing your pad if
they are constantly damp
i.d say it is your waters. I
have had the same thing
but i'm only 35 weeks and
have a leak in the bag so
have to go back in next
week to check how much
fluid i have left and talk
about possible induction.
But as you've lost your
plug and had your sweep
i.d say your waters are
coming away slowly but
surely there are not many
people i know who had the
pop and gush of water you
see on the tv most are a
trickle etc. Good luck hun
and keep us posted x x
