yeah with my last i got a gush, then they kind of slowly leaked all day, seemed to be loads, i used mat after mat, but this was simply because it was my hind waters that had gone first.
With my son that was a very big gush, and contractions started within an hour and a bit.
Not long for you now, all the best, you will soon be holding your little one.
All my babies have been born in the 38th week too, my last being 38 +5, before her was 38 +2 and i really cant remember my first, i just know he was 38weeks (it was 16yrs ago now!) lol.
