The baby can keep making amniotic fluid. It can be clear, pale yellow or pink in colour, I don't remember an obvious odour. You should contact your clinic if labour has not started within 24 hours. My waters broke at 33 weeks, and it was a significant amount, certainly something impossible to ignore, my fluid levels were low, but ok I was started on antibiotics. I have a friend who is curretnly being treated for a small leak at 28 wks, she is on oral antibiotics and has been sent home to rest. It seams to have healed up.She described her leak as feeling like that of heavy AF. At 36 weeks they may start antibiotics if labour has not started withing 24 hours, or consider induction. If the fluid is stained or has an offensive odour go to your clinic ASAP.
