Can my water leak slowly?

Question

I’m not quite sure if my water is slowly breaking cause my undies are SO soaked... looks like pure water 😳 I’m 37weeks today and yesterday my cervix was still fully closed. I never had such wet undies! They’re soaked...ugh idk what to do 😐

Answer

Go get checked at L&D! They do a swab and can tell you if it’s amniotic fluid.

Answer

Yes - it can. Depending on where it ruptures and where baby's head is. Mine was not a huge gush at ALL. I was laying in bed and thought I had just gotten SUPER sweaty because it was so hot and then I got up to go to the bathroom and it just kept leaking a little. I put new underwear on and those got soaked too, so I changed again and put a pad in before I realized what was happening. It wouldn't hurt to go get checked - I saw my OB on a Wednesday afternoon she said my cervix was still high and closed tight and she didn't expect me to go into labor for another 2 weeks. My water broke at 3am that same Friday, less than 48 hours after being in her office.

Answer

I concur with the others!! Go get yourself checked!

Answer

Yes, especially if the rupture is higher up.
