Water Breaking

Can your water break little by little?

The chances of infection can occur only if you are constantly getting checked. You can go several days with your water broken and no infection but when you go into the hospital they will want to check you every hour but after 6 vaginal checks the chances of infection go up 30%.

Yes it doesn't have to be a gush it can just trickle! You tend to have way more discharge toward the end of pregnancy and it can be very watery I though my waters had gone a few weeks ago but it was actually an increase in discharge!

If it was me, I would get checked immediately. Yes you can definitely leak, but if it is ruptured and u are leakimg, then your exposing yourself and baby for infections because the amniotic fluid is open and no longer protecting baby as much. I would be seen.

How would you know if it's your water? Sorry that may be a dumb question. With my son I felt a pop in my stomach and then *bam* a gush of fluid poured out. I'm currently 33 weeks pregnant. I took a shower, got out, dried off, was brushing my teeth when I felt water (not too much) running down my leg onto the floor. I wiped then walked in my bedroom where I noticed a little more water on the floor. I don't see any blood show and I'm not in any pain. I hope that makes sense.
