Water leaking??? TMI info *UPDATE*

Mercedes • Mom to Silas 9-21-20 💙 one 👼🏻 in the sky 2/8/19.

So for the last like 3 days I’ve had more and more Braxton Hicks, yesterday being the worse due to me being a bit dehydrated, and yesterday I had a random hush of something right after I finished peeing. All I did was slightly bend at the sink, had the gush, and sat back down. It seemed like thin watery discharge and I put a liner on just in case it happened again. While out I kept track of my Braxton Hicks just in case cause of how many I was starting to have (which got better after drinking a lot of Gatorade), and I kept feeling random little gushes. I had almost soaked the whole liner within the 2 hours or so we were out. After I got back I put a pad on for the night. By morning it was soaked all at the top (which most of the time the gushes happened as soon as I’d stand up (I had a restless night and kept going into the bathroom to blow my nose, pee, and check my pad)). Also squatting massively triggered a gush and bending has been triggering Braxton Hicks. The picture below is from when I’d gone out with the liner on. I’m currently 39 weeks as of today. I haven’t peed myself at all during the pregnancy except like once or twice I tinkled a little, and this didn’t feel like that. And I’ve had excessive discharge most of the third trimester, and haven’t had it start “gushing” like that prior. Do you guys think it could be my water, or is it just pee and/or discharge? I just want to know so I know if I should call the doctor. I have an appointment Tuesday so I’ve been trying to put off calling but my husband is starting to get worried and wants me to call. And today the gushes haven’t been as bad either.

*UPDATE*

So I went in and got checked, and it is my water! They started me on pictocin and antibiotics. I was at 2 cm when I came in, so still got a bit to go. Nurse guesses he’ll be here by the afternoon ❤️
