When I was having my daughter. I felt this weird feeling like I had to pee really weirdly so I got out of bed and there was a little splash on the floor. I thought I peed myself so I wiped it up and got back in bed so that was nothing...
Then 15 minutes later the feeling came back. I got out of bed and it was like niagara falls coming out of me onto the cold hard hospital room floor. The gross water splashed up all over my legs/gown and onto the chair,bed & wall. I sheepishly walked to the door of my room and said to the nurses at the station in the hallway "stuff's coming out of me" they didnt hear me so I had to say it louder. Then one said "what stuff? coming out of you where?" so I had to say " maybe its my water breaking it came out of my vagina" and there were other people in the hallway who heard it.
She came over and she looked at the puddle and me and she said "yep thats definitely your membranes rupturing" told me to take off my gown and sit on the toilet. So I was sat on the toilet completely naked while she wiped up my amniotic fluid and got me these horrible netted underwear that could stretch to fit a 500 pound woman. Then she put a fullsized bath towel folded up in the crotch of the underwear,stuck three HUGE incontinence pads on the towel,got me a fresh gown and said "here you go now we wont have anymore leaks go for a walk" then when I stood up she looked into the toilet and said "thats some nice bloody mucus you'll be having your baby today"
