im due in a few days and the other night i swear my waters went it was only a trickle but ive been having terrible backahce aswel sometimes i cant even move

i went up the hospital and she checked me over and she said my waters havent gone but she couldnt tell me what the fluid was i know i never peed myself. but its been happening all the time now trickling out i have to wear a pad as i keep leakin clear fluid an my backache is not going away. ive herd this has happend to people i know so i know im not going crazy this girl said the midwife told her the same thing that her waters never went an her backache was nothing and yet she was in labour but the midwifes cant be botherd until im in full labour.



have anyone else experience this or know whats going on coz im fed up of being told thats its nothing when im sure its something

my hindwaters broke when i was 21 weeks pregnant but becuz it was the water above the baby and my cervix was stilll sealed it didnt pose a risk for infection..Lay flat on your back for 1 hour and if u leak when u get up then its ur forewaters that have broken and they can break up 2 a weekb4 labour actually starts.. GOOD LUCK

yeah it happened to me it is your front waters and not your back. When you go into labour its your back waters that break thats what i got told

I felt a tricle when I was in labor and didn't know it. The first one was at 8pm and I didn't feel a contraction until 2 am. I thought I was peeing myself though.lol. I was in preterm labor for the second time! I was on meds to keep me from going into labor! I'd say you were in early labor but have a lot of fluid, so it isn't all gone. Go back! have them hook you up to a moniter and they will see if you started contractions for sure. They did that to me when I went to the hospital the first time and I was having contractions every 3 min and didn't even know I started labor at all. I was just bleeding. But, when I got there, I was already dialating.

With my first i had the same kind of exaby would experience, i argued with the doctors because i too was having leaking. When i stood up or bent a certain way but then it would stop. 2 weeks later i finally got a positive that yes my water had been leaking and that i had a small hole in the amniotic sac that the baby would cover, hence the stopping of my water leeking. I had a terrible infection because of it. Thank goodness the baby was ok. She is now 4 years old almost 5.

Go back to he doctor and have them give you the strip for testing of the water to take home. If it turns blue you were right. A second opinnion is better then the consequences of being wrong!

If I were you I'd go back up to the hospital. It sounds like whoever checked u was really wrong about whats going on. If your water is broken over too long a period of time your baby becomes at very high risk for infection.

my waters didn't break until i was at hospital. they broke just before my son was born.

however i did suffer from terrible back ache when i was in labour.

sweetie you know your own body best .. so if you definately think its your waters i'd seek another opion. good luck sweetie xx
