Did I wee or have my waters broken?

TMI sorry… During intercourse I felt a sudden (big) gush of water and it’s soaked the bed. How do i know if this is my waters breaking or if I’ve just squirted more then usual? I had squirted during foreplay (which is usually when I do) but don’t often during inter course so I’m second guessing it now. I have 40+4 weeks pregnant.

I would guess your waters, which will continue leaking out right up until Labour. Pop a pad on and keep an eye as you need to let the labour ward know

Put a pad on and keep an eye on it x

I would suggest you ring the hospital and they will get you to come in to check if it’s your waters, better to be safe. Especially since youre overdue

it sounds like your water breaking to me. put on a sanitary towel and monitor how much fluid comes out and if it’s soaking the pad. the only way to confirm 100% is to have a midwife swab inside your vagina to test for amniotic fluid so you may also want to call triage to arrange this x

Pop a pad on if its your waters it doesn’t stop just keeps trickling xx

Thanks all. I’ve put a pad on so will Keep an eye out x

I have spoken to the midwife and she doesn’t think it was my waters (gutted) so just suggested what you’ve all said to keep an eye on my pad and if it gets wet to go in, If dry not to worry xx

You should call your doctor as soon as they open

@Emily I have spoken to the midwife :) Thankyou. X

Okay! When it happened to me I had to go in and get tested to see if it was my water . I didn’t think mine was. But it was. I hope it’s okay !

Hope you’re doing ok. My eldest liked to sit on my bladder and make me wee myself occasionally 😅 he was born at 41+2 so it’s definitely possible it wasn’t your waters. Did the midwife mention about lying down for 30mins then standing up and seeing if you get another gush? I tried that and nothing happened so it was apparently not waters.

@Sarah yes the midwife suggested this and I done so, nothing more came out. So don’t think it was my waters sadly :( still going today… hoping for something haha x
