I’m 38+2 weeks pregnant, with my first baby, and I was just wondering, will I 100% know when my waters break? I’ve read up on it and everything I’ve read has said i might feel a popping sensation or I might not feel the break at all, and then a gush or a trickle and it’ll be an odourless, watery substance that’s either straw coloured or clear that comes out. But I’m confused, because when my baby moves and kicks it can feel like popping, and I’ve felt something come out before and I’m not sure if it was discharge or not, because it was watery but I haven’t had contractions I don’t think. It’s all so new and confusing, can anyone help?
