Waters gone?

[jenn88]

Forgive me regular poster!! 36+5 with first baby! Woke up about 6.30 to very tiny leak of water, wiped after wee and was ever so slightly red. Put a pad in and have been leaking blood stained fluid since. It's only ever so slightly blood stained, could this be my waters?
To follow up I have been having mild period pains since and a few loose bowel movements! Also mild back ache!
I have not rang for advice yet......

Sounds like it to me! I would be ringing labour ward because you're under 37 weeks just for peace of mind

Agree you should phone labour ward, pretty sure they will want to check you over

Yep- go get checked. Keep a pad on, they may test the liquid.

Ring labour ward and keep your pad on. Good luck!

Yes this is exactly what happened to me.
They will wait 24 hours for your contractions to start on their own before inducing you.
However if you have had period pains then sounds like labour has started spontaneously! 👍👍👍

This is how I started. I would ring and ask to get checked out.

Sounds like it! I had my first at 36+5. Ring the labour ward. Good luck!

I just rang and midwife just said keep a pad in for a few hours and call back later! The period pains are quite strong though!!! Making me break out in a sweat!!!

Look like a new years baby on the way, good luck! Have you got your bag etc all ready?

Jenn88.... How exciting!
"Break out in a sweat" ....if I was you I'd be packing my hospital bag if you haven't already done so. Sounds like you are definitely on your way to meeting your newborn...are you up to a short walk to keep yourself active... Starting the NY with a bang!🎉

Wishing you a fabulous birth experience... Let us know how it goes...

Exciting! With my first my waters went but contractions didn't start. Sounds like you are contacting, or starting to, so hopefully you will go into spontaneous labour. Good luck!

Good luck op

Well she's here! Got to hospital 12pm! 5cm dilated and delivered by forceps at 5.39pm weighing 5lb9! Me and baby doing fab! Have had extra special care here at hospital as they are super quiet!! Thanks for all your advice xxx
