need some advice!!!

[worried mum]

Hiya everyone I am currently 38 weeks pregnant and have been having some back pains for the past four days, I have also been looseing a lot of fluid but dont know if it is urine or water. I have also just woken up to something that feels like a water affection. Are these the first stages of labour or just common in pregnancy? please help!!!

No idea- but I do know that if you've been leaking fluid you should have your doc check it to see what it is. Might be a bit embarassing if its just urine but you wouldn't be the first. My sister in law went to the hosp 3 TIMES thinking her water had broken and it was always just urine or discharge BUT it would be safer to know. Good Luck!!
