Waters or pee ๐Ÿ˜ญ๐Ÿ˜…

I never thought Iโ€™d be one to question if my waters broke or if I just peed myself given that with my first it was a huge gush and then continuously flowed out of me until there was nothing left to leave but here we are! Lmao
I was lying in bed and went to adjust my undies because I had a wedgie (gorgeous I know ๐Ÿ™„๐Ÿ˜‚) and there was a slight โ€œgushโ€ but when I say a gush it was almost like turning on a tap and letting it run on a low pressure for 3 seconds. Then it stopped. So I went to the bathroom to inspect because I was wearing a panty liner and figured it would indicate something based on the colour. But of course it missed the liner completely and had only gone up the back end of my knickers! The thing is- it didnโ€™t have a smell. But there hasnโ€™t been any more waters leaking or anything. Not even close to the amount that would be presenting itself if it was a full on water break.
Is there a way I can make it more obvious before I head up to the hospital to be told Iโ€™ve just peed myself? I remember reading somewhere to lie down for a few minutes and stand back up and sometimes thatโ€™ll move things/baby around to let out more waters so youโ€™ll know ๐Ÿ˜‚

my mom told me to put a panty liner on, if it soaks within 25-30 minutes itโ€™s your water

Put another pad on and see if you keep leaking over the next few hours if you do itโ€™s likely your water. Lay down for a while and stand up and see if you get another gush

Do the lying down like you said but pee first. So you know your bladder is empty so if thereโ€™s any water coming out when you stand up then itโ€™s your water and not pee

If it keeps going itโ€™s your waters

Toddler (29 months) Name Change ๐Ÿ’•

Please be kind, Iโ€™m just looking for friendly advice or thoughts. I had a few names on my baby name list for my daughter that I almost used. I do like her name, but as sheโ€™s grown, she really fits another name on my list so beautifully with her appearance & personality. Itโ€™s close enough in sound that I donโ€™t think her development would be interfered with. Iโ€™m not worried about how others in my life would react to the change, itโ€™s all about trying to decide what is best for her ๐Ÿ’•
My thought is to use her given name as another middle name so sheโ€™d have 2 middle names ๐Ÿค

Abit confused on whatโ€™s going on. Baby gone from 90th percentile to 60th in a few weeks and says baby growth is still a slight worry .

Anyone know why is that?

Anatomy scan worries

Hi girls
I'm a little worried it might be normal
I can't help but worry at my 20 weeks scan they couldn't see baby girls heart or spine and kidneys so i have to go back in 2 weeks.
The mesurments atm are worrying me but they didn't say anything
head was measuring 13% 165 mm
Cerebellum 95% 22.8mm not sure if this normal
Ac 99% 165.8 mm
femur 48%
I will ask at my next scan as I didnt get the results until it was time to go and looked at them at home .
Has anyone else experienced these type of readings.
I wonder if my baby will be normal or not .

Driving after c section

How long did it take for people to be able to drive again? Iโ€™m really stressed about not being able to drive independently. I have family around but they do all work full time and canโ€™t always rely on them. I also donโ€™t live somewhere with good public transport

Touching my bump

I have a little bit of anxiety about people touching my bump without permission. I feel like some people just feel like they can. And I'm barely a hugger even with friends let alone having someone touch the bump (I don't even have a bump yet and I'm nervous)! How do you politely set boundaries in this area?!
