First of all sorry ive been postin so much, ive just got alot goin on right now in my pregnancy.
Ok......For the past two days now I have been having really bad cramps on and off and i'll lay down and when I get up im wet down there...Like im leaking fluids or something. I woke up yesturday morning and I was soaked but I brushed it off like it was nothing..This morning I woke up and I was soaked again. So I said what? Last night I had r.E.A.L.L.Y. Bad cramps and I almost cried myself to sleep but I had ryan there rubbin my belly tellin me its ok. I got up went to the bathroom and went back into bed..And when we went to go eat I was wet again so ryan looked(i know he always looks lol) he said were the baby comes out is really wet and the rest is normal(some spots were damp) so I wiped it out and its back again. Am I leaking or something..Did my water break? O yea, yesturday after my shower I went downstairs and I felt stuff comin out so I looked and on my underwear there was like a big line of stuff on it..It looked kinda like dried blood mixed with white? It doesnt have an odor to it..But this is just really weird. Can anybody help, if so thanks a bunch...Is my lil one gonna be here sooner than I expected?

Wow I would call the doc/hospital right away! Dont wait. .I would call and tell them what happened. It sounds like the redish stuff could be 'show' which happens sooner sometime b4 labor... How many weeks r u? I would definitly call. Baby shouldnt be comin already, arent u less weeks then me? Im 32.5

Your waters dont have to break in a huge rush of liquid, the membrain can tear and only a little seep out , so sounds as though you are in labour........ Go to the hospital .........Especially if you are under 35 weeks......... Go now, wake some one up if its night over there, but go now. If you have been leaking for more than a day you could have picked up an infection, thats why you should go in to the hospital once your waters break, but please if you are in premature labour you should go now.

I would still call. . Cuz if u go into labor at 27 weeks, its majorly risky and dangerous for that baby. .

Hun I know I just talked to u .But I mean I dont wanna scare u. .But some babys survive that early, some dont.. Its tuff to say , 27 weeks is early, I know babys can survive, but it can be really hard. So its hard to say either way. Get to the hospital asap so if its premature labor they can hopefully stop it.

Oh my god, heather are you ok? Did you go yet? Im having extra crap leakin out of me but I think its just that white discharge crap and its just increasing... Like when I stand up I can just feel it leakin out. Hopefully thats all it is for you... I dont know what the blood would be from though if that was the case... My goodness I hope you and baby are ok.

That could be it, or you could have ruptured the amniotic sac and you're leaking fluid. If that's what happened, then you really need to go to the hospital. That's really dangerous if you aren't in labor. If you are in labor, hopefully they can stop it so you can go to full term. Good luck sweetie.

We are back ladies!! Everything is looking ok and it was a false alarm. They said it was normal to leak some fluid at this point in the pregnancy and to wear a pad and they were glad that I came in just in case. So we are all good and baby is ok cause we were bein monitered. The babies heartbeat was at 150's then to 130 and ryan started talkin to her and her heart started goin really fast and kickin the machine and when he sneezed the baby jumped. So she is lookin good and im lookin good so its all good. False alarm. Thanks ladies and sorry to worry yall
