HELP...LABOR SIGNS??!!

Hey all mamas, so Ill be 40wks tmrw and ive been at 1cm for a week, lost my plug a few days after my apt last week..but finally had the "bloody show" which was Tues 6/25/13... been having on n off painful ctx's and actually felt my shorts get wet but just a little bit! My doc said to go to hospital as soon as my water breaks to put me on antibiotics due to GSB...if im saying that right, im puzzled as to if my water broke already and if all those sound like early labor?? Help me out mamas...im a ftm...i think i have an idea but just wanted to hear what you guys thought??!!

My water never broke with baby number 2 it just sprung a leak I would go  to l&d they can do a quick test to see if ur water us leaking... If it us u can catch an infection that can harm your baby. Best wishes

There are some great apps to help time them. Remember: start of one to the start of the next is how far apart. :)

Thanks shastas84...i did change and ive been dry now, just feeling those ctxs still, im so bad at timing them though, lol...but i would say theyre about 5-10mins apart, some are intense some not so much, i think thats why i brush it off!!!

Usually your water breaks and you stay wet. Change your shorts and see. Start timing those contractions :) It could be about that time. Good luck
