My waters just broke!

I woke up feeling a bit wet down there, went to the loo, and as I stood up there was a pretty big gush of water all over the bathroom floor. It was blood tinged, but I've not had a bloody show yet, so I take it that's a two in one?

It doesn't smell , but does keep coming. When my mum told me to stock up on mat pads, I didn't realise I'd use half of them before birth 😂

Just waiting for contractions to start. How exciting!

They'll keep on trickling until baby's here now!

Time for a walk if you can face it, that is what ramped my contractions up once they started Grin

Not long now OP, good luck!

It was actually a bath that got things going. Once I got out of the bath contractions were 2 minutes apart and DH panicked and drive like a lunatic to the hospital.

Didn't need to. I was 7 cm dilated when I got there, but laboured until 4 in the morning, so pretty much a 24 hour labour start to finish.

We have a little girl!
