No ideas but call midwife if not sure!

Agree - call the midwife! I wouldn't worry about the baby not moving very much now - he's probably tired if he's been very active all night. It could be the start of labour but equally might not. Wear a pad if you think your waters might have broken/might be about to break - then a midwife can check it if you're concerned. Good luck!

I heard/ felt a popping when my waters broke, although mine was accompanied by a trickle, followed by lots of bigger trickles of my waters.

Have you tried lying on your side for 30 mins then standing up?

My contractions started about 45 mins- an hour after the pop.

I'd give maternity triage (or labour ward if that's how your hospital works)- they may ask you to come in.

Good luck and fingers crossed you meet your baby soon :)
