I think my waters have broke

I’m a first time mum and I’m not sure what to do. I stood up and water came running down my leg n left my trousers wet, I feel like it was my waters breaking but how can I be sure? My due date is in 2 days

Call the MAU department, it sounds like waters

You call your local MAC to let them know. They will ask you to go in so that they can check. I think they will probably send you home but usually put a 24 hour limit on if it actually was your waters. As in, you’ll need to go back to hospital within 24 hours as waters breaking increases risk of infection if left. Don’t worry, just call them :)

Just ring hun. Never be afraid to ring them xx

We were told to pop a pad on so they can test the liquid if they ask you to go in. A friend of mine had a partial waters break and she said if you are even remotely filling a pad, it’ll be amniotic fluid (vs mucus plug). Good luck! Xxx

Yes that’s your waters it’s exactly what happened to me you need to ring hospital. They will ask you to come in and check pad. Mine kept going constantly in little gushes over 24 hours x

Go up maternity, Pop a pad on or take in the wet knickers so they can test them , they will also check if your dilating etc and more than likely if yes it also helps set the timer for the 24hrs window of infection, I’d always say to anyone if they think they have gone to go up because I’d rather know than not and I did with my first and will again with my second and they are always more than happy to check xxx
