question that may be a bit gross.

[flopsybunny]

I have spent a happy evening bouncing on my ball. And have been bouncing for a good half hour, when I sood up my clothes were very wet between my legs. Now sorry to be gross but I had a sniff and it doesn't smell like wee. Could it be waters leaking or sweat? Sorry, said it may be gross. How would I know. I have just had the usual tightenings today with back pains and sharp poains down below.

Hope someone can answer!

Does it smell rather sweet or not really anything? Waters have a sweetish smell, some say it's a bit like bleach sweet iykwim?

Hope all is ok and OMG can't believe you're 37weeks, I remember your BFP!

Good luck hun

No real way of telling if it's sweat or water, just put a pad on an bounce a little bit more if when u get of the pads wet then it's just waters of it's not then it's swaet, x that's what I'd do anyway x

Thanks girls. I have stuck a pad on and got back on the ball. The only pain I have feels like trapped wind around my lower tummy and back. But that probably is trapped wind isn't it lol!! How long before I should check the pad nadine?

Sorry im not much help... Really not sure, but didn't wanna read and not post though. Have to say though I'm feeling a lot more wetter lately, sometime I feel like I've wet myself, especially if it's a plastic chair I have to check after I've stood up! Haha. I've started wearing pads all the time which helps but they sometimes make me feel even wetter!

Hope someone can be more help xxx

I'm sure I'm just being paranoid - but I am high alert after having that show last sunday.

Yeah definately I can imagine, I'd be analysing every little thing! This place is a lifesaver, my midwife would have heard from me a lot more if it wasn't for this forum! Xxx

 

[flopsybunny]

Lol my midwife still hears from me a lot. I am resisting calling about this coz common sense is telling me it isn't really anything - but I just get that little niggly "what if??". Lol! If it is anything I would know about it pretty soon!

That's what my contractions felt like at first with son, trapped wind, erm I don't no just keep checking it, it all depends which waters might break if it's the front n babys heads engaged u will only loose a little like a trickle n that Could B over days when pressure is put on u like the ball all all At once
Were as if it's bk waters n babys Ed not full pushed on cervix that's when u get a gush of water, well that's my recollection on it
fingers crossed things are going in right direction for u x

Is it your first? Only advice I can give is - with my son I was same, in a panic over every little thing, thinking is this it, should I ring my mum (as I lived on my own 30mins away from her ) but when I went in to labor I knew, u just know, I had no signs other then a little bit of stringy discharge days b4 then I woke in middle of night 2 days b4 due date with cramps like trapped wind a day later lo was here x

I think I've felt all wet after bouncing on ball a couple of times. I get quite paranoid about stuff like that too x

 

[flopsybunny]

Yeah it is my 1st. So I have no idea what is normal and what is not and what is a sign and what isn't etc. Add to it that I am a worrier and hey presto you have one big, paranoid pain in the bum! Lol
