Honey... is this your 1st pregnancy??
This was happening to my "cuñada" or my sister in law.
In these, your last months, your pelvis is gonna be going through major changes. You have to make way for a Baby Head and Body. Your pelvis s going to start expanding and will give you some excrutiating, but tolerable pain.
You're gonna feel like ****... but its all gonna be worth it when you hear your baby cry for the very 1st time.
Good Luck, Gurl.

Errrr... if you are having a slow watery like discharge, then you need to call your doctor NOW, seriously, NOW.
Along with those crampy feelings, yes.. call your doctor, that sounds very seriously like your water leaking, and if it's leaking then you are on your way to having a baby.
(it happened to me that way)
Just make sure you take your labor bag and things for the baby just incase.
GOOD LUCK
EDIT: Also, do not listen to jerdy. C-sections are not meant to be for "pleasure" reasons. C-sections are for serious medical reasons ONLY, ie: the baby in serious distress.
The time that you spent pushing the baby out, being in labor, whether it be 2 hours, or 30 hours, is well worth all of the pain and you WILL forget all the pain when you hold your new baby.

More than likely it is your water leaking , so it seems the way you have described it but it coudl also be a little "tinkle" since the baby is pushing on your bladder. I would def. go to the doc or the L&D of your hospital to get checked .... Good Luck... If it is your water leaking I recommend that you get a some rest before the hard labor hits ya.....

It could just be false labor, your body is getting ready but isn't quite there yet. If they get farther apart when you relax then they are not the real thing. Take a nice relaxing shower and see what happens (get the necessary stuff done quickly, just in case). Call your doctor, just to be safe, but start timing the contractions and whether or not they get stronger/weaker. Best of luck!

I haven't went through labor YET but it's sounds like yours is starting. I have heard that if the contractions get 5 minutes apart then to head towards the hospital. All I really wanted to say is congrats and I am so excited for you!

I don't know about others, but I never had a BIG GUSH of water with any of my three pregnancies. Mine were more leaks & I had horrible back labor. I did what you are doing, I did non-strenuous housework which did put me into labor.
Monitor your contractions or your cramping anyway. Be sure someone is there for you in case you do go into labor...
Congratulations!!!! Your gonna be a MOMMY!!!!!

Go get checked....if your water is leaking you could end up with a dry birth. I had one, and most of the labor was in my back. Trust me, it is not pleasant to give birth without lubrication. Go get checked.

First of all:
Never work, drink, smoke or get HI in time of pregnancy. Could lose youre baby!!!
My sister have her daughter after 20 days after time limit. I do not want to scare you, but, It will be better for to give birth by cesarian operation. I know that, this hapened to sister after 12 hours of payn! Be smart! Good luck!
