Okay, I am finally dilated 1 to 2 cm. My OB said that if I do not go into labor by my next appt then I will be getting an u/s. Okay, that makes me nervous, but I know everything is fine. Baby's HR was 140 and he/she wasn't active so hmmm. I have gained a lb and 1/2. Okay, I feel really really stupid for asking this, but did any of you ever leak fluid after getting a vaginal done? I have noticed that the past two times that I have had that done, my underwear ends up kinda well, wet. Could it be from the KY stuff they use or what?? I really hope so. Gosh, I am so ignorant to a lot of this stuff. I also found that some of my mucous plug came out and it was tinged light pink so that was more than likely from the vaginal I assume. I haven't been timing my contractions at all because well, to be honest, I didn't know that the "period" like cramps I was feeling were considered to be contractions.

I'm not having any contractions right now. I haven't really had any since after the exam.

The leaking is probably from the KY. I hate that stuff, it's always so squishy! There is no need to feel ignorant. This is your first I assume, which means that this is all new. Just remember that there are no stupid questions. Your doc has heard them all. As far as labor, when I was pregnant with my first, an older female friend of mine told me "you'll just know" and I did! Every time you feel a cramp you wonder, is this it? But when it's the real ones you will know. Good Luck!!!

My wife had our baby 2 days ago and yes she had the same experience. It is normal and when the contractions suddenly begin to get more painful that what you've felt over the last couple weeks start timing them and when they hit 5-6 minutes apart get to the hospital quickly. Some leaking can be from a pinhole like leak in your water as well. Ours came about 7 hours after the membrane was stripped.

The leaking is more than likely from the KY jelly.

It is normal to lead fluid. When i was pregnant like a week before I was due I was leaking fluid and thought it might have been my water so i went to the hospital but they said that was just normal discharge. you have more when its closer to your due date.
