*updated* Possibly leaking amniotic fluid- Waiting to hear back from the on-call doc
I’ve been having prodromal labor since weds. Contractions range anywhere from 5-10mins, last for hours then disappear. I’m beyond uncomfortable. LO is now so low that I can’t walk without severe pain and pressure. I can feel every turn of his head.
Tonight, my fiancé came to bed about an hour ago, I was ALL OVER the bed, so I went to scoot over and squirted about a 1/2 cup of fluid. It was enough to wet my bed and run down my legs when I stood up. I wet, but didn’t soak a pad over a 30min period and now I’m still very wet in my vaginal area. Enough that I’ve soaked through my robe and wet the couch. The fluid is clear but dried white on my gray sheets and watery. I’m also sweating profusely. Like, it’s a DRIPPING from my armpits and I’m not even hot So, I’m not sure if I’m going crazy or leaking amniotic fluid and I dunno what the sweating is about 🤷🏾♀️ that started a few mins ago. I’m contracting every 10-15mins and a bit nauseated as well, but I’ve been feeling pretty “ick!” Since the prodromal labor started.
Anyone ever experience this? This is my 3rd, but this pregnancy has been SO DIFFERENT
****So, I did end up in L&D. Doctor says it’s NOT my water. He said I do have tons of discharge, I’m dilated to 4cm and have a bulging bag. He thinks maybe the pressure cause the discharge to squirt. Yet can’t tell me why the fluid was clear 🙄. Now I’m being monitored because I’m contracting every 7mins
