Tell me about your water breaking...
With Ds1.. there was a tremendous gush and there wasn't a doubt in my mind that it had broke.
With this baby...I am not so sure. Felt the same..and then it stopped. Does it always come in a gush..can it just trickle in small gushes? (Sorry if TMI)
Can you give me the details..lol?
ETA: If it does just trickle out in small gushes...how often?

Re: Tell me about your water breaking...
About 3 hours into my induction, I was sitting up in bed and suddenly felt like I was peeing myself. They let me go to the bathroom and I couldnt stop it... it just continuously trickled out onto the floor. lol.

Thank you for responding. I don't think it broke just based on my previous experience. Just scared to ignore it and have the baby in my driveway!!!

Re: Tell me about your water breaking...
I had more of a slow leak. It was a little more with each contraction. My water broke at the same time I had my first contraction.
Good Luck!

Thank you! I felt the first small gush about half hour ago...so I assume that would be too slow...right?

Re: Tell me about your water breaking...
I didn't have a big gush. Small leakage that I couldn't control.

Re: Tell me about your water breaking...
After the initial gush, I was leaking for a long time afterwards from the point we left for the hospital and when I was in the hospital bed. I felt like a newborn puppy with the wee wee pad underneath me.
So if you had a little gush and now it's leaking, it could very well be it. Have you smelled it? The fluid is supposed to be sweeter smelling and won't smell like urine at all if it's just a control issue.
Contractions didn't come for a good hour or so, if not more after my water broke.

Re: Tell me about your water breaking...
Mine broke in the bath tub and I felt a pop and a crazy amount of pain after. I also felt a gush and when I got out of the tub I had stuff on my legs. I still had some leaking after that but most came out in a gush. From what I understand you can have a slow leak also.

Both times it was a small trickle and contractions started 2 hours after so I knew I was going into labor.

Re: Tell me about your water breaking...
With DS I had thought I was just leaking.
Kept getting changed, came down had breakfast and once the water was dripping down my legs, I knew something was up!
LOL
DD: Pretty much emergency C Section, so, no labor, water breaking, etc. (she was a preemie)

Re: Tell me about your water breaking...
I had a HUUUUUUGE gush and it literally did not stop gushing out constantly right up until I was on the OR table for my C-section. There was NO trickle for me!!!

Re: Tell me about your water breaking...
With DD#2 I had no clue my water broke. I labored at home for about 2 hours and made about 20 bathroom trips probably, between peeing & throwing up. When I got to the hospital they asked when my water had broken-- I had no idea it had broken. I felt the urge to pee every time I had peed at home.

Re: Tell me about your water breaking...
I had a tiny leak and it was at night. I kept standing up and then laying down to see if it was anything, lol. It was a little bit at a time and it seemed like it could be anything. Eventually I just went to bed since I had an early OB appt the next day.
I went in and I was 4 cm dilated and my water had broken but not all the way!!! She fully broke my water and it went all over her. 
Side note: I was waiting FOREVER for my OB in the room and I was freezing in a gown and super pregnant. My feet were going numb from sitting. I told DH jokingly that I hope my water broke on her.
