Leaking??

Hi everyone,

This might be TMI but i am a little worried about some vaginal discharge that has been occuring over the last week or so. Its not a large amount and is usually during the day and nothing at night.

It makes the crotch of my underwear a little wet. Not soaking but enough to notice, but what is concerning me is it seems quite watery. Could it be amniotic fluid leaking? It seems colourless but this is my first pg and not sure if this is normal. Has anyone else experienecd this? I know an increase in discharge can be normal but from what ive read it shouldnt be watery but more thick

I had a drs appt today which was cancelled as the doc was sick so i am considering caling the hospital....but dont want to sound like a worry wort

Mine is also a little watery and would love to know if this is normal as i seem to have a little extra as well, it ranges sometimes thicker sometimes watery

im worried as well

Sounds normal to me. I was definitely 'wetter' during both my pregnancies and needed to wear panty shields. If it smells funny get it checked out.
If you're worried about if it's your waters, see if anything happens when you cough.

I think if it was me I would just go to the hospital for peace of mind. An ultrasound can confirm that everything is ok.

Best of luck

Hi,

I had this the whole time I was pregnant with my son, numerous trips to the hospital and testing they still dont know what it was (it wasn't urine or amniotic fluid), all my OB could put it down to was more mucous due to the membranes softening.

If you lie down for about an hour and dont move when you stand up if it is amniotic fluid it should run out quite a bit as it will pool inside, if it is discharge this wont happen.

If you are really worried though always call the hospital they have been great for me!

All sounds normal to me. Some days I put on a panty liner to save myself going through a million pairs of underwear. If your worried give your middie or OB a call though.

Just been to the doctors about this exact problem today. I didn't have this with my first pregnancy but this one...everything is bigger, droopier and more full on! I have been wearing panty liners for about a fortnight as I too was wetting my underwear too often. I had to change from the paper thin liners to a thicker one a few days ago.

Mine only seems to happen at work where I am constantly squatting or bending over. I wasn't at work yesterday and 'dry as a bone'! And at night and in the morning I have no issues with it either, so I put it down to incontinence (big yay!...not) So I had a urine test done today just to double check for a UTI, but I have no pain or burning or frequency of peeing.

I hope this helps you :)

P.S. I noticed the time is early in the morning that I posted this, it's actually 20 past 9, just wanted to point that out in case you thought how I managed to get to and from the doctors at that time in the morning. I actually share the back fence with the doctors surgery!

I wanna be that close to the Dr lol just pop in when ever u have a pain or something different lol

They aren't the best doctors though, unfortunately they can't spell very well or speak english 100 per cent but for test referrals, or doctors certificates they are ok. And are so close for lil me who doesn't drive..


Anyway I have found out from my urine test that I have a UTI so he put me on antibiotics, and triple plus glucose in there too (excellent, here we go again). I have been taking the pills since the 8th and am no longer incontinent! I feel kinda silly that I put the leaking down to pregnancy, for two weeks! Sheesh could of ended up with a kidney infection! Anyway I am feeling much better now, and am just sticking to a diabetic diet to keep my sugars down :)

Glad to hear you are ok, Linzy. I have to ask what's with the guinea pigs?

I have absolutely no idea! I heard it somewhere (I think by a british comedian) and found it's complete and utter randomness funny. Don't know where I heard it or saw it but I likes :D
