Water discharge/ 23 weeks

Hello moms! I'm having a watering discharge that can make my pants wet. I did call midwife triage and went to the hospital to have a check.
The test for aminiotic fluid came out negative.
But it's so strange this watering discharge.
Has anyone here had this experience?
I know I'm being a bit paranoid 😅 but I'm still want to have other tests done. I will ask my midwife next time.
I'm just trying to relax and not worry . What you girls do to not get worried?

Thank you so much

Yes I do too nd was told it’s normal

How far on are you? I’ve just had the same and it wasn’t my waters either. Midwives and Dr’s just put it down to increased discharge further along in pregnancy and was told to monitor it and wear a pad x

They even said to me instead of googling phone us and ask it’s what they’re there for, but you feel so daft half the time, well I do 🤦🏼‍♀️ I’m past myself with the movements but I don’t think they’re meant to be ‘counted’ as such til 3rd trimester, but I’ve had them check a few times and heart rate has always been fine, it’s just the constant worry isn’t it?!
I’ve had 2 second trimester pre term labours and babies have been to small to survive, also had a cervical stitch as a precaution incase they were caused by incompetent cervix. Just to top it off got placenta previa too 🙃🤣 x

Ive had this too, mines slightly yellow/brown but doesn't smell like urine and means I need to wear a pad all the time. I went in for the amniotic fluid test too and it was negative so they've just said it's usual discharge. But yeah the watery element is very odd!

C-section hospital bag question..

Never had a section before always gone straight home after birth.

How many pairs of underwear should I be packing? Is 3 pairs enough?

Also is there anything else you'd recommend if I have to stay in?

Ovulation Pain

So for the last few days I've had horrific symptoms. Cramps that are honestly like labour pains, dull ache in lower back, reflux, extreme bloating, fatigue, anxiety and a bit gassy/ digestive discomfort. I'm at the point in my cycle now where I'd likely be ovulating. Anyone else experience similar? I'm almost 10 months postpartum and I've had 1 period so far. Still EBF.

C section belly pain

Hi! My c section was December 2024. At my 6 week checkup, i shared i had this point tender pain like an inch above and maybe .25 inches to the right of my belly button. Got an ultrasound a nothing. 15 months later im still having this point tenderness. Sometimes the pain is more apparent, sometimes baby is held a certain way and i get pain there. Not sure if a nerve thing, an adhesion, something else? Anyway thought I would ask if anyone has dealt with something similar. Did you figure out what caused it?

What feels/felt like the longest wait, the 12 week scan or 20 week scan?

For me I feel like the 20 week scan right now is the longest wait. It's not because I care about gender, I just want to know everything is okay and what to buy 😭 but it feels like forever away even though it's this month
