Water breaking or extra urine?

Morning ladies. Is it possible for my waters to break whilst pooping? I'd already urinated before I pooped and had to push the rest of my poo out. When I pushed more liquid came out and continued to come out every time I pushed. When I wiped the front the toilet roll was wet but colourless (didn't think to smell it). I've no contractions, can feel baby move as normal and don't think I've lost my mucus plug yet. Currently lay down with a pad in to see if it pools but is it even possible? Especially given I've not lost my plug

I’m not sure but you can miss the loss of your plug and won’t always see it. Back when I was constipated I felt liquid come out but I think it was just urine due to the pressure

Hey! You've done the right thing by putting the pad in to check it. When water starts leaking, you will defo feel it. My waters started leaking on Wednesday morning, I just woke up and stood up, and it felt like I peed myself a little bit. Through the day, sensation was repeating, and by the afternoon, every time when I was in up right , it was just runing non stop and I just couldn't control it. By the way, I haven't lost my mucus plug, didn't have bloody shows, and no contractions. I gave birth on Thursday :)
So, of your pad will feel wet or soked call Triage immediately and go there, they will check your pad and will confirm if it is water or not :) good luck!

It’s very possible it’s called “prom” when your waters break but you’re not in active labour, you’d be best contacting your MAC and having them check you over.. ensure you do not have a bath before having yourself checked over and if showering do not use anything other than water - it’s also best to contact them asap so they’ve a recorded time of how long your waters may have been broken for as they’ll need to start considering what steps you’re wanting to take next if your body doesn’t go into spontaneous labour - good luck x

Induction?

Anyone been induced before? Was it more painful? Better than thought? Worse than thought? Worth it? Thoughts?

Induction or c section?

As a last resort, would you rather be induced or have a planned c section?

Really not liking the thought of being induced from people’s experiences I’ve read!

i really want another baby

i am merely a few months pp but i want another baby, but i am scared of the age gap (2 under 2) and also with everything going on in the world i just think its not the best idea at the moment but i am having crazy baby fever and miss having a newborn🥹

Has anyone ever had pain in the bone at the bottom of the lady area?

How I can only describe it is I feel like I have a fracture or the bone is broken right at the bottom of my vagina bone obviously don’t think it’s to the extent but that’s how it feels. I had it in my last pregnancy and the pain went few months postpartum now it’s back again with this pregnancy. These are the results that u e googled I think I may have the first one has anyone every had this or something similar

C section or natural?

I am a control freak and thinking c section is the least stressful route for me and baby… less complications during labour etc. whilst acknowledging recovering can be hard.
If it could be guaranteed no tearing or complications then I would opt for natural and kind of want to experience the feeling.
Then again could plan and go either way 😂 arghh!
Anyone else in this predicament?

Homebirth?

I am thinking I want a homebirth (second baby) for a few different reasons but my husband is very against it, he is worried about things going wrong and we are a 30 minute drive from the hospital. Has anyone been in a similar position and what did you end up doing? Any advice? 🙏
