Pregnant. Have Ligament Pain, Diarrhea, Frequent Urination, Back Pain, Discharge. Is It Early Labor?

Hi I'm currently 37 weeks and 4 days pregnant. My dr noticed yesterday that the baby has dropped dramatically. This morning I woke up with intense ligament pain. I've also had diarrhea for 2 days, I have more frequent urination along with "gushes" of discharge. My ligament pain is more painful and frequent and I have lower back pain. Am I experiencing early labor?

Hello and thank you for the question.

If you are beyond 37 weeks, having pressure, pain and leaking fluid, by all means you might be in early labor and your bag of water might be leaking. You need to seek care NOW and be evaluated.

Thank you.
