Waters leaking

This is very embarrassing 🙈

I was sleeping in just a nightie last night but is short so was up high I’m not sure if this is that I’ve peed myself a little (didn’t feel like I had but unsure or if my waters are leaking 🥴

I stood up and this was on my bed, I smelt it and it doesnt smell like obv pee but I’m unsure.

I’m only 28 weeks.

Waters don’t smell like wee so there is a chance you wet yourself (nothing to be embarrassed about you have a baby dancing on your bladder!) but if you have any doubt whatsoever I’d go to triage and get checked. They can do a swab to check for amniotic fluid. If you are leaking water it can be very dangerous for baby so better to be safe than sorry. Best of luck 😊

I meant it doesn’t smell to obv like pee.

I’ve got dressed put pants on and there’s a little wet patch on them.

I’m wondering if it could just be sweat tho.

I would get it checked out just to be on the safe side

If there’s no smell to it and you’re still leaking ring triage and ask to be seen to check for your waters going. Some people have a massive gush and some people can have a trickle/leak for a while x

Put on a pad and then check to see if you’re still leaking!!

there’s only tiny little wet patches on my pants when I go to the toilet so I think it’s just discharge or pee

I think it’s just pee or extra discharge as there’s only tiny little wet patches on my pants when I go to the toilet now

Sometimes if you lie back down you’ll get more fluid to come out if it’s truly your water. If you are up, baby’s head will plug it for the most part.

Please go and get checked. You can have a hindwater leak which means there won’t be a lot of fluid leaking

TMI: No judgement please but do you think I should go to a hospital tonight or I’ll be fine til my appointment next week?

A gush of brownish red blood came out, like it squirted out while I was standing. I’ve been cramping the past few days, I’m supposed to be around 7 weeks pregnant but at the last appointment doctor couldn’t really tell even with the vaginal ultrasound..there was a faint heart beat but I’m kinda worried I’m miscarrying

Midwife visits

how many PP midwife visits have you had and at what point??
I’m 3 weeks PP tomorrow, had a midwife come out on day 1 and then day 5 and got told at the day 5 visit that a midwife would come out again once baby has reached birth weight so that we could be discharged, yet she’s been back to birth weight for a week and we’ve heard nothing from midwife’s. all contact now seems to be only from a health visitor but she’s not coming back until another 3 weeks.
Should we have had another midwife visit post day 5, or have atleast heard from them during this time…? 15 days no contact at all makes me assume i won’t?

Prodromal labour

If anyone has had prodromal labour, I was just wondering what it felt like to you? I have been contracting since Sunday, started mild and on and off, but since this morning has been really intense and the pain during contractions feels like labour did last time when I was 8cm and going to the hospital. The difference is, they are usually about 7 minutes apart, sometimes longer. Wondering whether to call triage and just ask to be examined and then it might help me gauge whether it’s false labour or not 😬

Name help!

I would say these are our top first and middle names for our girly, however just can’t make out mind up (I think it’s more me being indecisive lol)

What do you guys think? Or any other suggestions similar? X
