Last night I had a dream my water broke while I was going to the bathroom so I didn't even realize it happened.

Tell me that I'd still know ?  Or that it wouldn't happen that way? 

Boy this waiting game is the worst !  I just want my little boy to make his appearance. 

I can barely concentrate on working.....  and so far no signs of contractions, mucus plugs, bloody shows, etc.

I basically felt the same way..it's frustrating...but soon it will all happen.  I remember coming to work and it was 2 days before my due date...I was ticked.  Luckily I told my Dr when I wanted written out of work...they said they usually won't take people out until their due date.  I explained I just wanted 2 days before...they were A okay with that.  Perhaps at your appointment (hopefully today, tomorrow or very soon) they can help things along.  My water broke that night after my appointmnet.  I definately knew it was my water, it kept leaking and leaking...all the way from my house, to my moms (dropped our older kids off) to the hospital. I was praying I could keep it on the pad while in the elevator with strangers. Sending positive vibes.

You will know if it happens that way...you will go to the bathroom....but it won't stop when you get up and move!  I was so worried about this when I was due too!  I woke up to go to the bathroom (At 12:15-Midnight) and I felt a gush and thought I have just pee'd my pants, but I went and it didn't stop!  I could barely walk it kept coming!  I wouldn't even go to walmart the last week or two because I was so afraid it would happen there! For some it doesn't even brea****il after you go to L&D!  Hope everything goes smooth for you and you have an easy delivery!  Try to enjoy your last days...even though you are sooo ready!  I so miss it and wish I would have relaxed and just enjoyed my boy still in there a little more!

Have you asked them to strip your membranes???  Use your breast pump, eat something spicy, or pineapple, um...hop on someone's trampoline...bounce on an exercise ball.  Of course, I did all these things and my water still didn't break...however, after the stripping of the membranes I lost my mucus plug that night.  Not until I got to the hospital and was induced did I have my bloody show.

Good luck!!

Mine happened just like Becca. It just didn't stop. And I started getting contractions right away. I think you will know...and if you don't notice a water break I believe the contractions will come right away. Good luck...it won't be long now! shari

I wish I could help but my water never broke... They broke it when I was in labor...

I had contractions starting at 5:30AM on Friday morning all the way thru 12PM Saturday morning when I headed to the hospital... I was 5cm dialated but my water never broke... They had problems getting Zander's heartrate on the monitor so they broke my water to put a monitor on his head...

You will definitely KNOW when you're in labor... There's no mistaking it (at least not in my case) but you will know it's happening.... Hang in there.... I know it's easier said than done...

Shave your legs .... as soon as I propped my leg on the side of the bathtub my water broke!  It was amazing because I was scheduled to be induced that day :)

Good Luck!

You will feel like you are peeing yourself but without the sensation. I remember I was on the computer talking to friends when it happened to me. It didn't hurt or anything at all.
