put a pad on and see if its wet in an hour.
also apparently amnio fluid is alkiline whilst urine is acidic so if youve got some litmus paper handy hey presto
seriously though you should ring your midwife, it can cause an infection if they have. there is a chance though its just your pelvic floor muscles giving up the ghost and your peeing yourself!

i am 14 weeks pregnant and i am expierencing stomach pains. they dont feel like it is anyting to do with the baby. does any one have any advice

ToadieG1 · 03/10/2007 20:00

I only realised as I just responded to the other thread.

BellaBear · 03/10/2007 20:08

maybe 14 was a typo and she meant 34?

ToadieG1 · 03/10/2007 20:13

Well I could accept that if she said she was 34 weeks pregnant but she said 35. 14 is not a typo for 35.

BellaBear · 03/10/2007 20:18

okay, fair enough

fingerwoman · 03/10/2007 20:23

but 4 is next to 5

ToadieG1 · 03/10/2007 20:36

Even if it was a typo you'd correct it. Say oops typo I meant 35 weeks, makes a difference in the advice you'd give.

fingerwoman · 03/10/2007 20:38

maybe. all a bit odd.

the message i left saying 14 weeks was for a friend who does not have internet access and is having problems with her pregnancy! i told her about this website being great maybe not as good as i thought!!!!
i didnt know it would cause such a bitch fest.

not a bitch fest.. people were confused

had you said you were posting on behalf of a friend, there would have been no issue.

i trust you got yourself checked out, and your pregnancy is continuing to term.

glad everything is ok with you.

sorry you are uncomfortable, you could try making a support out of a wide piece of fabric, tie it tightly around your hips , under your bump.
