Right ladies.. my waters broke on the toilet at 10.30am this morning and have been leaking ever since it’s now 4pm Iv been to hospital she checked me and put me on monitor and I wasn’t haven’t contractions until I reached the hospital. She’s sent me home said my cervix is still a bit prosterior whatever that means and to go home take a bath and take pain killers. She checked me at 2.15pm. If my contractions are 5-1-1 rule to go in but if they don’t get that regular to call at 9 in the morning and I’ll be getting induced. But the pain I have is horrible.. FTM. How long will this leaking go on for as I can’t walk round cus I’m leaking through everything and any ways to manage the pain better?
I’m the exactly the same My waters broke at 4.30 early hours Friday morning no contractions when to hospital sent me home said exactly what they said to you been having contractions all night every 5-6 mins gone back to hospital today and now then have sent me home and told me to go back for 2 o’clock as I’ve got to go on a drip and there was no beds for me such a mess about I didn’t sleep a wink last night as my contractions was that bad!!! Xx
Every time i walk I have to stop every 2 steps cus of the pain. And sat on ball absolutely kills me same as sat on toilet does 🤦🏼♀️
Sounds like maybe slow labour? A bath bought my contractions on thick and fast. Try a bath again. Also bounce on a birthing ball and go for a walk x
In pain but they just won’t come fully regular.. keep going down to like 3 1/2 -4 mins and then next one is like 6 mins away.. it’s so annoying.. but pain is getting worse. I just don’t want a wasted journey x
@elletaylor, not too bad. The pains are definitely getting stronger but they are ranging between 3-6 minutes and keep going up and down
I would go hospital and stay there sorry especially if baby was my first.. coz it’s so worrying being a ftm and especially if your waters have gone
@kirsty.w.2888 yeah just try and rest and see how things are in a lil while x
Think I’m going to stop timing for a little while and try and lay down and sleep a bit but I very much doubt it x
Now little miss has decided she’s guna start pushing out all over aswell 🤦🏼♀️ just to make me a bit more uncomfy x
@kirsty.w.2888, they can give you gas & air there and stronger pain killers it’s just the way you said your having them on top of each other & then longer periods between xx
@kirsty.w.2888 i feel so sorry for u you've had a rough couple of weeks with pains and false alarms etc and just when u think she's coming soon it starts messing up again. Just keep monitoring them hun x
They are really down low I kinda expected my whole belly to hurt but it’s literally bottom of my back my pelvis and vagina .. is that right?
@kirsty.w.2888, I’d just ring them darling & tell them your in pain bath isn’t helping your contractions are like they are & you need there support & care xx
@mumof4nearly5, do you think? I don’t want to go and have another wasted trip for them to send me home again 🤦🏼♀️
I was exactly the same, my waters went at 7pm and my contractions never regulated. I had to be induced 24h later and my waters were still leaking all the way up until my son was born which was another 13h after induction. They leak forever 😂. I was going through a pad every ten minutes and even then it was soaking my trousers and top every time. Fingers crossed they regulate during the night and you don't need to be induced in the morning! X
@amyecmt, between like 5-10 mins nothing regular and about 30-40 seconds x
I’m just in the bath now it was helping a little at first but they come on stronger about 10 mins ago x
@kirsty.w.2888 as soon as they get stronger and are lasting a minute or more that's when to go hospital x
@erincharliebubba, when we got back from hospital I could feel it spilling over my pad and down my legs and this woman was walking behind me on road I was like oh ffs this is just not good and then a contraction kicked in all I wanted to do was get home but I had to bloody stop cus was so painful 🤦🏼♀️
@fisazaman95, it’s awful as soon as I get off toilet and put another pad on within like 5-10 mins I’m drenched again 🤦🏼♀️
@kirsty.w.2888, if you have two contractions within 10mins I was told to go in! It will keep coming lol put a towel in your trousers if it makes you feel better, with my 1st I just sat on towels in the end x
@fisazaman95, I want to walk around and bounce but I’m just leaking through everything soon as I move or baby moves just fished out of me 🤦🏼♀️
There really hit and miss some are 3 mins apart some are 7.. some are on top of each other. Iv been leaking for hours I thought it might of stopped by now surely they can’t be much more left 🤦🏼♀️
I would go hospital and stay there sorry especially if baby was my first.. coz it’s so worrying being a ftm and especially if your waters have gone
