leaking amniotic fluid or just discharge?

Question

Last night my stomach started cramping a little and it feels very sore almost bruised throughout the night I kept waking up very wet, and when I move around I feel myself getting wetter it's really odd...not sure if it's just increase discharge or if it could be amniotic fluid. Is there any way that I could get a better idea before I call my doctor when they open

Answer

If you are concerned I would definitely get checked out! Better safe then sorry.  I thought my babies were just getting heavy and causing me to leak pee,  but came to get checked this past Friday...sure enough one of my babies water is leaking. I'm lucky I have no infection or anything, it's just a trying to keep them in game now, but I will be in the hospital until they are born! (I'm 25 weeks w/twins). Don't put it off if your unsure! Good luck to you.

Answer

I asked the lady at Lamaze this question and she told us what it looked like and what it may smell like. But when I asked my dr the same question I got the most helpful answer (this is how I knew my water broke the day my baby was born). She told me it wouldn't stop. You may or may not have an initial gush or pop, but it will continue to leak or trickle. Like poking a water balloon with a needle- that continuous leaking feeling. Mine gushed then trickled and then continued to gush several more times between the initial break and on the way to the hospital. :) hope this helps!! Good luck!!

Answer

Youre best to just call your doctor's office when they open i don't think discharge would leak out like that but then again I could be wrong

Answer

Okay. I'll call as soon as they open. Thanks for the support guys
