    Is My WATER BAG LEAKING?
    I just turned 34 weeks and 5 days.
    I woke up this morning and was a little wet down there i stood up and white liquid like stuff running down my leg and my vagina was sorta sticky? (WEIRD TO SAY)
    But, all day today iv'e had sharp pains in all around my stomach, my hips are sore, and i'll also get these excruciating sharp pains on the inside between my right leg like its ripping and getting stabbed...
    It eventually goes away.. But, that's not the point that sh!t hurts. L.o.l.
    I know you're gonna ask why i haven't been in to see the doctor. it's because i don't ever think it's that serious. but, what do i know i'm not a doctor. (:
    I have a appointment for a check up and to fin out my actual inducement day is its either when i turn 37 or 38 weeks because of my last pregnancy.
    He was a still born as a unknown death.
    Plus my body can't take no more growing the baby is already 5 1/2 lbs for a guesstimate.
    And i'm having heart problems and breathing problems..

    It's possible you could be leaking, but it's also possible you could be urinating on yourself. Urination like this is common this far into your pregnancy because the baby kicks the bladder and tiny amounts of urine leak out.

    As far as the pain, this is common as well. It is usually caused by one of two things, or a combination of both. 1) baby is positioned on a nerve, or 2) there is a hormone produced called Relaxin. This hormone does exactly what it says it does. It relaxes the muscles, tendons and joints to prepare yourself for delivery.

    Most hospitals will not induce before 38 weeks, even with a medical necessity. Most still won't until 39 weeks. Considering your history, it would be in the best interest of your baby to wait until 38 or 39 weeks instead of 37. Your doctor should be doing NSTs (non stress tests) or a BPP (biophysical profile) on your baby weekly rather than inducing at 37 weeks. Both of these tests indicate fetal well being. If either of those indicate a problem then they should induce early.

    Back to to your membranes... If you think they may be ruptured, it is important to be checked out at the hospital you are supposed to deliver. Prolonged rupture of membranes poses a potential risk of chorioamnionitis to both you and your baby. This can be a very serious to both you and your baby.
