posted 3rd Feb
I'm laying down now. Its 1am here and my ultrasound is at 10am.. so its not long! My stomachs rather crampy.. but I really just want to wait... rather if its I'm not ready and being stubborn or its not really it... Ijust wanna be at home and see what happens.. Ihave to have a c section. Since Ihave had 2 prior ones... that doesn't change anything right?

It could be just a weak bladder with kidney infection hence the pain and leakage, or because you said your having the dull back pain and a trickle of clear fluid it could be the onset of preterm labor. Sometimes the babys nails could cause a small tear in the amnionic fluid sac, it rarely happens, but it can.
I would lay day with a pad on and see how wet it gets and monitor the back pain. If the pain persists or gets worse and the pad is getting wet laying down, I would call advice or L&D, but even the they will probably tell you to come in because the only way they can check is to put the fluid your leaking under the microscope test, and check your service and monitor the babys heartbeat. If its the onset of preterm labor you may not be feeling regular contractions because it could be back labor.
If you can call a friend or family member to take you or call ambulance, better be safe especially with the back and and fluid leakage. If its early labor and your water leaking its better to find out sooner then later because they can usually stop the labor and keep the baby in you longer.
It really does sound like what my sister went through when she was about 24 weeks pregnant, and she was in preterm labor.
I hope everything goes ok and it turns out to be nothing. Remember were not doctors just giving advice, and I have 6 kids, pregnant with my 7, and my sister has 2 kids and both started preterm labor at about 21 and 24 weeks. It can be scary. You are in my thoughts and prayers

Well as long as ur not dialating they can stop and contractions and if in fact ur water did break, like the lady earlier said....you are early enuff to be able to replinish ur fluids. they may have to keep u in the hospital til then. i watched an episode of a baby story on tlc where a woman went thru that. I guess it just depends, but ur doc will let you know for sure whats going on tmro morning.

One of the girls in my due date thread's water broke and she went 4 weeks before having her baby (who is freaking CUTE by the way)
If it DID break you will most likely end up in bed rest at the hospital
