did my water break?
ok so i was just using the bathroom and when i got done i wiped and stood up to pull up my pants and when i did i hurt a noise like not loud or anything and i didnt feel anything done there like a pop but right after some liquid trickled out. not alot but enough to soak my pants and panties. did my water break? i am only 28 weeks
Thanks Anya! I've never heard of this before!! And it looks like we have similar due dates. :)
Yes, when my water broke, I was already in the hospital having early labor..contractions were mild at first for an hour, and then they got worse. In 3 hours, they were pretty bad but I tried to sleep for 30 min. I woke up because I heard a popping sound in my HEAD, and immediately, my water was pouring on the bed. It was yacki and I wanted to stop but it took a while before it was done. I knew it was water because of the popping sound and the water coming down my legs. Right after I started to have THE WORST contractions EVER!!!
Anyway, that was my first baby. I hope to go faster with my second :)

So what was the popping noise all about? Just your knee cracking or something? I've never heard of a popping sound when your water breaks. Anyone have experience with that? Is that common?
I am glad to hear as of now everything is ok!!! I would def keep off your feet and relax. Dd they put you on any kind of bed rest?
just got back from the hospital. they tested the fluid and said it wasnt amniotic fluid. they said i just went into false labor and they wanna keep an eye on me to see if the leaking and contractions continue.
The same thing happened to me, I went to the e.r. And they tested the fluid it wasnt amnioctic fluid and they have no idea where it was coming from or what it was I was tested for all sorts of infections and what not, but im ok and my baby is ok, I hope the same for you.
ya you need to get checked now... better safe than sorry.... and ya you would still feel movement and contractions dont always start when the water breaks
it is a simple test with a swab to ceck for amniotic fluid

By 28 weeks she should be moving at least four times an hour. I would go get checked out just to be sure. Just because your water broke doesn't mean you should have contractions. Also If your water did break you should be monitored closely due to infection risks even if you aren't in labor.
can you still feel the baby moving around though after it breaks cause i have felt her move once or twice since. and i havent had any contractions
