Leaking amniotic fluid or discharge?

Question

I am worried but not sure if I should be...I have always had a lot of discharge but it is typically more white and I typically don't feel it coming out. Today, it has seemed clear and runny and while in the store I actually felt it come out which is unusual. It felt like I peed a little and being that I am 30 weeks along I would normally assume that it was pee but I had just used the restroom. Any thoughts? Should I be concerned?

Answer

Same thing literally just happened to me! I had a full bladder when I woke up so I peed. When I picked my toddler up to get her ready, I felt more leaking out. I was like hmmmm is this my water? Then I realized that I probably just didn’t get all my pee out the first time so it came out on its own. I felt like I couldn’t stop it.

Answer

Did you get it checked?

Answer

This happened to me on Tuesday evening. I was 33 weeks and assumed it was just I hadn’t done enough pelvic floor exercises however my husband made me call the hospital just in case.  I went in and discovered it was in fact my waters and then in hospital they broke properly - learnt my lesson, always better to be on the safe side!!

Answer

It wouldn’t hurt just to go get it checked. Doesn’t really sound like it but then again I’m not a dr and I can’t test it. 
I’d just rather be embarrassed that it wasn’t my water than it being and me thinking it wasn’t and something happening to the baby. 
I’ll admit though I was 39 weeks with my last and my water broke at 10-11 pm and I thought I just pee but then the next day I went to work and 15 minutes into my shift my water gushed like you’d think when water breaks.
