Am 39 weeks and a bit, and am sooooo uncomfortable it is untrue. Have got pains in my groin, and my back feels like I've pulled all the muscles going. Have had period type pains for about a week, but nothing other than braxton-hicks on the contractions front. If I walk too fast I can feel the babies head very painfully banging against my bits and pieces, and if I sit still for more than 5 minutes I am so stiff I can't stand or walk without ome unceremonious crawling across the floor first. No sign of labour whatsoever other than a bit of diarrhoea and heavy discharge for the last couple of days. Baby is not for moving.

I know I am probably meant to feel this rubbish right now, just need someone to tell me so and make me feel normal!

I would go back to the hosp. This happended to my friend - lots of leaking but the hosp said her waters were in tact, but they had gone and the baby's head was holdng the water in. It was a few days until he was born and he and my friend had an infection and had to stay in for a few extra days but they were fine.
Don't want to worry you about the infection bit, but it definately sounds like your waters have burst and bubba is on it's way!
Good luck!
