I went to the doctor today and I was dialated to a 2 and 50% effaced, and the baby was at a -2 station. Here for about the past hour I have been having a really bac urge to pee constantly and everytime I go to the bathroom a little fluid comes out not a lot like I am urinating, just a little. I am also starting to have really bad cramps in my low back and abdomen and also pain in my theighs
(I will be 39 weeks on Saturday)
could I be in labor?

You could be in labor.
Some people have only a few drops come out when their water breaks others it is like a water balloon popping.
If I were you I would head to the hospital they can do a test to see if it is your amnio fluid. The worst thing that can happen ist that they would send you home.
Having had this happen 3 times.
Congrats on the baby!

Yes your water could be leaking. If it feels like you have spurted every little bit, it's most likely your water leaking. You should call your doctor. If you put a pad in and it is clear with no urine smell, that is your water.
The cramps in your back could be contractions or labor pains. Everyone feels them differently. Is this your first child? The general rule of thumb is that with each child you have you are in labor for less time....Hope that makes sense, meaning first child the longest, second child less time, etc.
Good luck!

Probably. You mention stuff that I had when I went into labor with my child. I had lower back pain and abdomen pain. You should call your doctor and if you can't get ahold of him you might want to go to the hospital just in case.

Get excited sounds like you are. For me when i lost my waters i was on the bed sitting up and it felt like i wet my pants. Usually when your water breaks, its not dripping, it comes out as one gush.
Your cramps and pains your going thru is normal. I had this a week before i was due. Try to relax as much as possible. Now is the time to get some sleep if you can.
All the best and congrats

Put a pad on. When you go to the bathroom, wipe and SMELL the tissue. If it doesn't smell like urine, call the doc- your water may be leaking.Your 'cramps' and 'pains' sound like they could be contractions.- you could be in early labor.

Yes It is getting ready for the baby to arrive, or well start on its journey to the world.
