So thismorning I was driving into town and could feel bubs bouncing around on my cervix. It went on for a lot longer than it normally does. So i pulled into the carpark of where i was going and i felt a really warm rush down below. I did'nt feel a trickle or flow of anything but i could feel that my jeans were wet on the crotch. I did start to freak out a bit but did'nt really worry about it too much.
After here i went and had the baby capsule put in and was still feeling quite wet down there. We then went to a few other places and then when i was loading Briley into the car i felt a trickle run down my leg. Because i had jeans on and my belly is in the road i could'nt really see any marks of wetness of my jeans.
So i called mum and arranged to meet her at a shopping centre and for her to bring me a pair of undies (i was going commando!!) and a pad. This was the first time i had been to the toilet since it started. When i got into the toilet there was no wet spots on my jeans. I put the undies and pants on anyways. Since it first started i have noticed bits squishing out when i am up and walking.
I have phoned the Birth Suite and they wanted me to come in but i said that i would wait a couple of hours. I have been into the Birth Suite that many times this pregnancy i am really embarassed to go in unless i know something is REALLY up.
Thing is, i am not having any contraction but i do have a fair bit of backpain. I went into labour with my waters breaking with Briley but things started immeditately. I am really confused.
Does this sound like my waters have broken??? Could i be just over-reacting???
I keep thinking that it could just be my hindwaters. But do they continually leak???
it sounds like it to me.... but as a 1st timer I certainly am not qualified to give out advice!!!!! keep us informed!!! I reckon go into the birthing suite to be sure...
i'm 38 weeks and I had about the same problem about 3-4 days ago... i went to the bathroom during the night and as i was walking out to go back to bed, i noticed that my boxer shorts were wet. the only thing is, i didn't feel a gush or anything... it was really weird... it has happened once since and i don't know if i am meant to call the maternity ward at the hospital or what. I am giving birth by caesarean, do you think it's wise to check with them?
When i called the Birth Suite they wanted me to come in but i said i would wait a little while. They said to call back at 5pm to let them know what is happening and what I am going to do. So thats the plan for now.
Will keep you posted though Pregpan!!!
I am just waiting for those dreaded contractions to start!!!
sharna, always wise to check with the clinic. The worst that will happen is they will check and say nope, you're right and send u home. They will not be mad or laugh at you or anything honey. They are there to advise and help. Give them a call....
Just letting you all know that i called the Birth Suite back and they still want me too come in and be checked. They want me too have dinner and a shower and whatever else before i come in though.
I went for a long walk around the farm and although i can def feel baby grinding down into my pelvis i am still not getting any contractions. I am getting lots of backache though. Oops spoke to soon! Getting a contractions now!!!
So hopefully something is really happening and i am not overreacting!!
I will be keeping in touch with a couple of girls that will let you all know if something does happen!!
Hmmmmm.......hasn't checked back in yet......I wonder what's happening... very exciting. Sara I laboured in my back, nothing but tightening in my front all the pain was deep down in my lower back. Good luck either way babe.

Well another false alarm!!!! How long can this go on for?!?!?!?!
So i went into the hospital and had a spec and internal done. Cervix is still a loooonnnnggg way back and closed. There was no sign of pooling of fluid, so no broken waters!
Baby has def dropped big time now. Decent is 1/5!!! The Dr i saw said she did'nt think i had long to go at all! Fingers crossed she is right.
In the end the diagnoses was that when you are getting ready to lose you mucous plug, your vaginal discharge can change and turn really watery! So this is what they are saying is happening to me. Never heard of such a thing myself but they are the Dr's right?!?!
I was having some tightenings lastnight while there but nothing regular or too painful. I woke up at 3am thismorning to some really strong contractions and thought "Don't even go there!!!!". I had a couple more but they subsided to nothing.
Have My Waters Broken???
