Oh such a gross tmi question! so sorry in advance

My dr has yet to check me to see if Im dilated or anything but Im coming up on 38 weeks and ready to get the show on the road! Lol
So hubs and I "did it" yesterday. Hes an afternoom kinda guy....for some reason lol,So I took a shower and we went to his moms for family dinner. Im sitting there talking to his mom like maybe 2...3hrs after the fact and I feel like this rush of wet. Which you get used to....lol...then a little more....then...a little more then finally....Im like "oh excuse me"...I go to the bathroom. Im gonna assume it semen because it was cloudy but there was SOOOO much like.... the entire crotch of the underwear were soaked. I actually had to dry it off. Ive never had it fall out so soon! Or be so much! Its usually waaaayy later or next day.Its sooo weird!
Does this mean Im still closed up tight since it fell right back down? Sounds kinda silly but I got thinking about it today...
Ive seen the plug with my 2nd baby.... it was a solid gooey snotty chunk... so I dont think that was it! Has anyone ever had that happen to them? I didnt have any cramps or anything...
I have a drs appt tomorrow.... Im sure shell check then! I hope.

Just to make a point - my water broke with my first son at 38 weeks and I didnt get contractions for 10 hours -
but id say it was semen - probably because you were up and moving around gravity judt tool over.  And perhaps your cervix has thinned out and it sitting lower maybe?
I hope you get good news tomorrow!! :)

Every time i have sex with,my,husband it,comes out almost right away and there is always a lot to soak most of my panties. I have never had it stay in unless I keep laying down with feet up.

Not to sound nasty but semen has a smell to it should have done a sniff test. Your amniotic fluid has no smell

So make them check you... I would... I started dilating at 35 weeks with my daughter... so I'll have them check me right around that time frame... maybe 36 weeks

My vote is it's semen.  I've had it all come out within a matter of hours. Faster and it seems like more, now that I'm 39 weeks. If it was your water, you'd be having contractions.

Lmao... yea... but it would be a story to tell... but if it was yesterday and there isnt anything still coming out... it may have just been semen... but if it came right out like that then you are probably dilated to something.... when do you go for your next appt??

I would think maybe the baby has dropped and your cervix is thinned out so there's less room in there to hold it. And if you're not still feeling it come out then I doubt your water broke because you'd feel it come out every time baby moved. I would definitely get your doc to check you and if baby is that low do a membrane sweep and get the show on the road! Lol

Could it have been your water breaking?? Semen doesnt tend to soak your panties like that. .. I remember my water breaking at home and what happened was I stood up felt a gush went to the bathroom and thought I peed myself... a little bit later thought I peed again and it was really annoying... but shortly after I started having contractions... it was only when I was at the hospital that I learned my water broke
