I don't know if I just peed myself or my water broke
I didn't think it was possible for my water to break. Dr. said it almost never happens like that with the first baby or you have contractions first (well on Friday I was having ctx and didn't know it but these antibiotics were supposed to stop them?). Plus Gabe hasn't even dropped so how can it break?
I did go pee right, then I got up and felt a little trickle down my leg like three drops. Then I came into the room and like a little gush came out on the floor. Then a minute later another little gush. And now I'm sitting on a towel cause he said that is the best way to know for sure like bring in your panties. Well of course I don't have those on. My Dr. told me it wouldn't smell like pee if it was my water but it didn't smell like anything really. It's clear.Do I wipe it up off the floor and save it and take it in?
Does anybody have any idea how much is supposed to come out? I'm sitting here waiting for more but so far there's only been a little bit.
WTF. Do I call? Or start cleaning because my house is a wreck? How do I even know for sure?
I guess I can't go swimming anymore cause then I'll never know. That's where I was headed when this mess started.
ETA: I really don't want to be the douche that goes in there only to have him tell me I wet my britches.

I would call!!! Your doc needs to know for sure because measures will def. need to be taken to keep Gabe safe!!
SOOOO exciting!
*Thats why I stopped swimming too. I was afraid I wouldnt be able to tell if my water broke*

I second that.
The trickle could be anything, but not a GUSH after you've left the bathroom!
Definitely have your Dr test it (maybe wipe some up with a rag to bring)

Oh Jeez, girl! I am in the middle of a "did my water break or did I pee myself?" moment right now. Mine was just 2 gushes and then nothing!
What I keep reading is to lay down for 30 minutes and then get up. If it's your water then you will get another gush. I didn't.

Katie - you are so calm. Call your doctor or go in. They should be able to test it to see if it's your water or not.
If it's like you are peeing and have no control and it comes coming - it could very well be your water!
The only time my water broke was w/baby #1 and I was in my shower - but it was like uncontrollable pee and when I went to hospital they confirmed that my water had broken.
GL - so exciting!!!!
OMG you're having a baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
