Waters?!

[MrsE]

Sorry girls, only just had a chance to come on.

I rang the hospital last night and they asked me to go in for a check up. So went down at 9.40pm and was strapped up to the CTG machine again and had bp done etc and all is ok, she checked my pad and said it's definately my waters but it could be either the front or the back.
I was allowed home at 11.30pm and I have to go back tonight at 10pm to be induced of nothing happens as they don't like to leave you longer than 24 hours in case of infection (used to be 96 hrs but new guidelines started last fri).
But if my waters go green or red then I have to go in asap.

Had a visit from the community midwife this morning, was all checked over and she said everything seems fine, babies heartbeat is still ok.

So I'm still here, still leaking which is such a wierd feeling. Had a decent nights sleep last night and am still getting cramps front and back that are getting slightly stronger...but I'm not doubled over so I have 7 hours to get going and still have my homebirth.

So it looks like I should have bubs by tomorrow WooHoo I'm really nervous now but soooo excited.

Update (again) lol.

Went for a long walk this afternoon and lost more fluid, it's slightly pink now too.

I rang the hospital to see if they were actually inducing me tonight and the mw asked who I was and what my temps had been etc (I have to take temps, check water and fetal movements 4 times a day) and said that because my waters have broken they wouldn't induce me until tomorrow, she said the everything sounds fine with regards to the water colour and temps.
So I asked if I could just come in the morning, she checked with the senior midwife and said that's fine, it's their mistake anyway and I shouldn't have been booked in until morning as all they'd have done tonight is paperwork and put me to bed.

So I have a reprieve, if nothing happens during the night I have to go in for 8.00/8.30 am and be induced looks like it's finally happening WooHoo.
