    My waters broke with both my babies and each was a different experience. I think a checkup would give you a bit of piece of mind.

    I'd say get it checked JIC!! My experience was that I woke up in the middle of the night to do a wee, but already felt a bit damp in my pants, as I stood up, there was a huge gush and then I kept leaking for most of the next day too. Mind you, I had a lot of fluid in there! But everyone's different. COuld it be a hindwaters leak? I don't really know what that is, but have heard it a few time!! I think its where a bit of your waters come out, but then the baby blocks the rest - I could be completly wrong though!

    Yeah, a hind water break is where the sac tears up high and usually towards the back which means it only trickles out slowly, especially if baby then moves to block the tear. It should still leak every now and then though from movement so if nothing else has come out since last night.........? I'm sure your OB will be able to tell you.
    Excited for you though!

    Thanks everyone for the info

    I haven't had any leaking since just the usual discharge, so at this point the puddle remains a mystery. I'm due today so hopefully i'll see some action soon

    Thanks again ladies!!
