No I didn't pee my pants...

edited March 2011 in Third Trimester
So, im 40 weeks today and ive been leaking urine during laughs, coughs and sneezes for weeks now. But, this morning I noticed a lot more leaking. I put on one of those amnio-screen pads...but it gave me a neg result (water didn't break). I went to the doc for my regular 40-week appt and I noticed the office was busier than usual. So, I decided to try to move things along faster by telling the nurse that I suspected my water had broke (not a total lie...). Turns out, it did rupture... Here I am in the hospital in labor...on my due date!!!

  • YAYAYYAYYYAYY :D GRATZ!! ^o^
  • That's awesome hun!!! :D congrats! I too would like to find those amino screening pads.
  • Sorry I didnt get back to all those who were curious about the amnio screen pads. They are quite new (the manufacturer doesnt even have a price tjey will be sold at. I got them from my doctor who has been hesitant to give them out, not knowing how well they work. They didnt work for me (i was impatient and only wore it til the first sign of dampness). The ph test at the doctors office was neg too. It wasnt til they checked for ferning under a microscope that they knew id ruptured (which btw, looks really cool!)
