Am I leaking fluid? Help, FTM

Question

I woke up about an hour ago to find my panties were extremely wet, and it wasn't urine. I called my OB and I'm currently waiting for them to call me back. I haven't felt my little one move since I've been awake so I drank a cold glass of orange juice and went to lay on my left side. I'm a FTM and I'm not sure if it's my water leaking, or what else it could possibly be?

Answer

Thanks for the advice ladies! I ended up calling L&D and talked to them. My Dr also called back afterwards and they didn't seem concerned. My appointment is tomorrow at 9am though so hopefully I can talk to them a bit more about what's going on.

Answer

I went to l and d because I was leaking fluids. They couldn't tell me where the fluids were coming from, just that it didn't seem to be urine. But I got scolded pretty harshly for not going in the day I noticed (noticed Saturday evening and went Monday morning). I was told very explicitly if I think I am leaking go to labor and delivery ASAP.

Answer

I would call the L&D at the hospital. They can let you know what to do. The doctors office sometimes don't get messages to doctors quickly.

Answer

I'd definitely communicate with l&d. I was what I thought was leaking fluid but I just had A lot of thin discharge. It only happened once and was super bizarre because of how much it was but it was luckily not fluid!

Answer

Go to the hospital where you plan to deliver so they can check you out. It's better to be safe than sorry!!

Answer

I would go to your birthing center
