when my waters broke they too gushed and kept leaking even 3hrs later on the way to hospital i had 3 pads on and sat on a towel in the car and they still went through - i remember walking down to the labour ward like i had been riding a horse for days it was horrible. my ob/gyn also mentioned the induction was necessary cause of infection (i didn't want to say earlier as i didn't want to freak you out - i gathered your carers would have given you the options) my g/friend also had leaking for around 1 wk (but somehow did not ring m/wives of ob) and her bubs was placed in special care for a few days - this may have been also that my g/f also had strep b infection not sure.
when my waters broke with lani they were stained a yellowy colour as she did meconium (sp?) when she was delivered they said the placenta was also stained so she may have done it a few days prior cause it looked like an old stain.
