Thanks Cherry_Blue & Gone_4_Ever,

I think I am leaking today which is quite a shock. It is definitely not urine, clear and odorless, looks like Water, and it is not continuous either. It only seems to come if I change position (like standing up) but then stops. It seems to be somewhere around a tablespoon when it happens but has happened 4 or 5 times this morning.

Could this be it? My water never broke before and this is nothing like what I expected. There is no pain or anything to go along with it. I actually noticed it first when I woke up this morning and was laying in bed after hitting snooze . . . I just kinda felt a little wet all of a sudden and my first thought was that maybe I peed a little although it has not happened before . . . but I checked and I am sure it was not pee.

I got a call into my OB, I just havent heard back yet. I am not sure if I should get excited or not. I feel exceedingly normal this morning otherwise.

Woo hoo Heather! I bet this is it dollface. Leaking Water can usually be only 1 or 2 things, and all of them are related to impending labor. Some women experience a lubrication effect, their vagina will get itself ready for labor, or of course the other obvious sign is your water breaking. Did you know most women's water breaks in bed? Of course, I'm only talking about those women who actually have theirs break, not the ones who get it broken manually by the doctor during labor. If you're dribbling little bits here and there, the baby's head may be floating around on the cervix and a bit of water leaks whenever she moves a bit.

Keep us posted! I myself have been very up and down this week, little things bugging me for no reason, etc. I have 8 weeks left, so I hope this isn't a permanent state of mind until baby arrives! I'm so emotional and borderline depressed!

Well, today is the day. I went to the OB and she said get thyself into the hospital ASAP. She tested it at the clinic and it is indeed amniotic Fluid. She said since it happened so early this AM and labor hasn't started, they need to start me on pitocin right away.

I'll keep everyone posted . . . as soon as I am not busy that is :0)

Wooohooo here comes the baby!

Well, Ayla came last night at 10:52 PM. It could not have happened much quicker than that. I went from 3 centimeters dilation to 10 in less than 30 minutes as I was getting the epidural in and then it was time to push. I was not even having contractions until they started pitocin at around 6:30 PM.

She is beautiful at 5 pounds and 7 ounces, 18.5 inches, light brown hair, teeny and very adorable and absolutely perfect.

Congratulations to you and your husband on your beautiful baby girl. Enjoy her. They grow up too fast (I know- mine are both married - where did the time go?).

I have been watching your ticker for months and just went on this thread today.

Take care and I wish you well.
