Break? Leak? What's going on?

[Carhootel]

So I was laying in bed a few minutes ago sleeping peacefully when I bolted upright and had a gush down my legs and enough to soak through blankets and sheets. I'm sure it can't be pee since there's no way I have that much pee in me these days! Do you think this could just be a leak or was this certainly my water breaking? I'm nervous! I have a previously scheduled appt this morning so I think I'll just go to that and see what they say...

Had some more leaking/gushing and contractions have picked up in strength and are pretty close together although not very long at all. I'm headed into my appt in a few minutes so we'll see what happens. I might be in denial but I think it could just be forewaters - I just don't believe this baby is coming today!

Good luck!!

that's exactly what happened to me when my water broke with my first son! I thought I'd wet the bed, but the water just kept coming. I started having contractions an hour or so later and he was born the next morning at 4:32am.

Congrats! And keep us posted!! :

how you doing mama?

[Carhootel]

I'm doing alright. Contractions about 4-5 minutes apart but only 40-50 seconds and they spread out to more like 9-10 minutes if I move around a lot. Waiting for 5-1-1 before we go to the birth center. I've got my husband and my mom here with me and I feel a little bit like a watched pot. Losing some mucous and a little bit of bloody show. I'm still in denial that this is all really happening but I guess it is. My due date was 3/4 but we were trying to get things moving early since my BP has been up and I'm being watched closely for pre-e. I got some acupuncture this week and last - and have been drinking RRL and taking a lot of EPO.

sounds fantastic! : We're rooting for you!

[lanielayne]

Sounds like this is it! If you feel like a watched pot you may have a longer labor. Go sit in your room alone if you need to so things can start progressing!
