Leaking waters?

I’m 35 weeks today wooo but… every morning for the past two weeks I’ve woken up with a palm sized water mark in my pants! - no smell, no pain and unaware of it happening…

I thought it might be leaking waters so got it checked out but the midwife said it was might be urine/watery discharge! - but it’s still happening.. thoughts? 💭🫶🏻

You get a lot more discharge towards the end of your pregnancy so it very well could just be that but if you’re worried ring triage and ask them to check as they can do a test x

Same thing was happening with my second and third .
Does it happen during the day?

I had a ridiculous amount
And always woke up in morning with wet patch and fresh discharge on top so I thought it was my waters but turns out I was leaking urine and discharge too

No It’s only in the morning strangely, not during the day but as soon as I wake up to go for my first wee of the day haha it’s always there! - i’m not worried or concerned about it just wondered if its normal x

I would keep an eye on it and insist on a scan if you think it’s your waters, I was leaking at 38/39 weeks and was told I wet myself, however they sent me for a scan anyway and it actually was my waters there was very little fluid left around the baby and I had to get induced x

Did they not do a test? They usually do a test to see if its water

I had crazy amounts of watery discharge leading up to baby. I wore pantyliners nonstop, probably starting at week 33ish.

You can always ask them to test, if you’re unsure!

I had the same, was leaking for three/four days at 37 weeks and son made a quick appearance shortly after!
