Earlier 2day my boyfriend and I had sex then about 5 mins afterwards I started to feel a trickle down my leg. Im quite sure it wasnt "him" because I had already started the clean up process. Well the trickle stopped then about 45 mins later I had a little bit more trickle. Its been about 7 hrs and nothing has happened except that my baby seems very very active, more than usual. This is my 1st baby and I am 37wks today (due April 1st). I just want some opinions on what you think is going on.

i was 39 weeks. Had sex the night before. was doing dishes and i felt a little trickle and it just kept trickling for 5 hours. turns out my water had broken. when i got to the hospital labor started with there help. My baby wasnt moving at all the day I went into labor. a week before i went into labor i thought my water had broken and went to the hospital they told me I had been peeing my paints because the babys pressing on the bladder. You should prob get checked. I had to stay 2 days because i wated so long after my water broke. They gave me antibiotics because of infection after ur water breaks there is nothing protecting the baby.

It is most likely "him" unless you have continued to leak over the past 7 hours. If it was just that little bit afterwards then I wouldn't think it was your amniotic fluid. If you are still leaking though, you need to call your doctor or the hospital that you will be delivering at because the likelihood of infection increases the longer your water is broken. They will want to get your labor going asap. You should really deliver within 24 hours of your water breaking if you are full term (which 37 weeks is). But if you are not leaking anything else, then I wouldn't be too worried. The most that the hospital staff will tell you is that it wasn't your water and send you home if it was really "him." I don't think that the baby's activity level would have to do with it. If the baby wasn't moving as much is when I would be more worried. Hope this helps!

sounds like to me your water is starting to break, but it will be alot, but if it continues to leak let your doctor know asap
