Waters broke

39 weeks and after having false contractions and braxton hicks for the last week, my waters broke and don’t really feel any kind of tightening anymore. Baby is moving fine just feels strange to be leaking everywhere.
Everyone said it would be like trickling but it’s a lot of gushes that I wasn’t expecting. Is this normal for most?

I think it can be trickling or gushing, it’s different for everyone. I’d ring triage though if your waters have broke and you’re not having contractions as they may need to keep an eye on baby x

You have back water and front waters so if it's trickling or fishing depends on which waters have broken 🙂

With my first one my waters just GUSHED 🤣 every night my mucus plug was falling on the floor so one night I prepped a tissue so I was ready but instead was a big gush of water
