Sorry if it's a stupid question but I can't find anything about it in my pregnancy book.
I'm 38 + 5 wks and today I was feeling really uncomfortable (a lot of back pain and a painful sensation of baby's head pressing down on cervix). As I was walking along I felt a little gush . Didn't feel like wee (although I was desperate for the loo at this point)...it felt almost like when you have your period and it gushes sometimes (sorry if TMI!). Went to toilet and knickers were quite wet. Didn't smell of wee or sweet or anything.
I haven't had any other signs of labour like a show or any contractions. Just not sure what to think.
Could it be hind waters? Or I think I've heard of something called fore waters too. Does anyone know the difference?
