I think I had my first boob leakage last night. We were watching tv and I was super itchy on one side and kept itching then realized my shirt was wet right there - oops
Hemorrhoids will be the death of me, had a hemorrhoidectomy after my first.... (never will reccomend that surgery) now they are back and worse
I had a hemmorhoidectomy as well, and afterward, I didn't heal for two years. Still couldn't wear a thong. One thing I will say is that no matter how good the pain meds make you feel, DO NOT wipe, wash completely, or wear a thong!
I had my first Braxton Hicks in the line for the deli at the grocery store. I knew they were Braxton Hicks because of how irregular they were so I finished and checked out. The guy in the checkout line was totally convinced I was going to have the baby in his line, he even called for a mop and bucket in case my water broke. I resisted the urge to tell him it's not like it looks in the movies.
@RhodaMorgenstern It's not always a big gush of water but it definitely can be. Mine was a big gush with DD. It was totally clear but water all over the place. I have heard that sometimes the baby will drop after the water breaks and block the rest of the fluid from escaping which is why sometimes you don't get a lot, but it can be different for each person.

I can see that but is there really enough fluid to warrant a giant mop and bucket? I was still wearing pants...
@RhodaMorgenstern Id say there is enough water to get on the floor even if you are wearing pants, but Id be hard pressed to say how much. Either way he was probably just making light of the situation
@RhodaMorgenstern When my water broke with my 3rd there was a big gush like I wet myself. But then I showered and put 2 pads in my underwear and figured I was good to go. We got to the hospital and as I stepped out of the car my water REALLY broke. And I stood there in the parking lot just gushing. I was surprised how much water there was. And then of course I had to walk into the hospital soaked. Dripping. My socks were soaked. It was not pleasant. But I imagine that if I was at work, that would have warranted a mop and bucket. Since it was the parking lot people just probably walked right past it. It was night anyways haha.
They broke my water in the hospital but I was shocked at how much seemed to keep coming out. Pants would not have absorbed all of that if it broke in a gush.
