Hi there, It seems like you have ruptured membranes or what we call broken waters. This is the fluid surrounding the baby in the mothers' womb. You need to go to your doctor or midwife to get examined and check if you are in labor. 7 in 10 women go into labor themselves within 24 hours of rupture of membranes. Do get examined immediately to also check for fetal heart and fetal position(whether head first or leg first). Also need to know if you have any fever or any other symptoms. As sometimes you may need antibiotics if you are having fever or infection. Most important to get checked by a doctor right away. Hope this helps. Regards.
