    ok i will def give the hosp a call now. thanks ladies.. I didn't think it was my waters though cos only the smallest bit came out. I thought i was meant to have a massive gush of fluid.

    From the Antenatal classes I did, I remember them saying that depending on where the baby is sitting, it could be two different ways - first being the hind waters which is the trickle and the other one being the fore water (I can't remember what it's called if it's not that) and that's the gush

    I hope everything goes well Please keep us updated

    Thats how my waters broke. Felt like DD kicked me really hard and i thought i might have wet myself a little.. But it wasnt. It was my waters "popping" and some leaking out. She was born about 4 hours later.

    So yeah, i agree.. you need to get checked. Goodluck xo

    Yep.. definitely get yourself to the hospital. I thought I was just having braxton hicks and stomach cramps from vomiting, turned out I was labouring at 34 weeks.

    That definitely sounds like waters breaking.. I hope it's just a small leak. Put a pad on so the midwives can tell if it's your waters.

    I wouldn't just call - Id go in -maybe call ahead, but id want to be seen by someone. apart from the pop and gush which is reason enough at 32 weeks, 5min contractions thrown in to the mix, Id definitely want a checkup.
