Pregnancy

[c_w_2009]

I was just wondering if you can have symptoms before your water breaks. I get feelings in my vagina that feel like something is going to come out, or like I'm going to go pee. But I don't. It happens a lot in the bathtub. I'm 1cm dilated, I dunno how much % I'm effaced though. But the last 3 days I've been having NON-consistant contractions, they are every 3-5 minutes, pretty intense. A lot of menstrual cramps, and a lot of cramps in my inner thighs.

My water never broke on it's own... I was 2cm dialated and 90% efaced when I went into labor.  I had contractions every 2-3 minutes but they didn't really hurt but I def. felt them :) that went on for about 24 hours before I went to the hospital, but the were consistent. I don't know how true it actually is but I was told if you take a nice warm bath (as long as your water hasn't broken) and your contractions increase in time and intensity then your probably in labor. It was true with me - and the contractions got stronger so..... How far along are you?

i never had any symptoms.  i was laying in bed watching tv.  i turned it off, and got up to go and brush my teeth.  when i got up - pop- water started streaming down my legs.  no symptoms before it happened.
