re: 30 weeks water breaking?

<blockquote><b>Quoting snglemama:</b>" just GO. a baby born at 30 weeks will need to go to NICU. there are simple tests to see if there is amniotic fluid present... and they won't think you're stupid. it's COMMON. promise."</blockquote>




 

Try coughing to see if more comes out. They didn't believe me that my water broke and left me in the waiting room for 2 hours 😳

Whoa, this post looks full of freaking out. Stay calm, hun. Call L&D and I bet a million dollars they will tell you to put a pad on and lay down for a few minutes. Try to put your knees up to your belly as far as you can, it will definitely leak/gush if it is your water. Good luck and hope it wasn't your water.  

Quoting Mandy Schlatterer:" I called l and d and the nurse said to lay down with a pad and if its my water then more will definitely come out, so I guess I'm doing that.."

she's being stupid. I'm sorry.... but essentially by peeing.. and walking and feeling "more come out".. you already tested the theory about if it's still coming out.

you need to go in. I'm a L&D nurse... you don't always feel preterm labor... if you wait.. there's little they can do to help.

last week I had a mom who was 32 weeks call because she had a "little cramping yesterday, and some brown discharge today"... I made her come in. She was already 2 cm and 70% effaced.. never felt a single contraction. I hooked her up.. she was contracting every 2 minutes.

you need to go in mama

That's exactly what they said on the phone

Happened to me at 29 weeks, lol. I don't want to seem nonchalant about it like it isn't a big deal, but I also know that you should just relax and try not to freak out. Hope everything goes fine and if it continues to leak and/or you do feel like it is, head in. They deal with that kind of stuff all the time, they won't think you're crazy! Good luck again!

Hi momma! How did you make out? Any updates for us impatient momma-to-bes?

I'm fine I guess she jumped on my bladder. Weirdest "pee" ever but it's the next day now and no more came out, no contractions.. Ill probably go to full term lol idk why I wouldn't. I was freaked out though

Well, I have to say that I'm glad to hear it was just a pee! LOL It's always better to be safe than sorry though. The L&D nurse that ran my prenatal class said that it's very common for this to happen, but if there's ever a concern, to head right over so they can check it.
