Fluid “leaking out” vs discharge

I’m currently 30 weeks and a few days pregnant, and I’m genuinely concerned that the increase of my discharge is NOT discharge. It’s super watery and if I move a certain way it’ll immediately come out and it’ll feel like I’m slowly peeing myself. I’ve heard stories of women not knowing that their water has broke because they thought it was just normal bodily fluid, but that they were told by doctors that it was actually their water slowly trickling out over a few days time. How the hell do you figure out the difference? I know it’s super early in my case, but you never know! Can you tell I’m a first time mom, lol

Sounds like it could be amniotic fluid. I would go in to Labor and delivery triage immediately they can test for it quickly

I’m a first time mom too so I’m not 100% sure but I’m 32 weeks & would personally go get checked out just in case

Notate for them the color of it. Odor (if it has any). Amount. And the time it’s started leaking

This happened to me and I went to LnD and they said it was just from my baby putting a lot of pressure on my bladder but it’s always good to go get checked to be sure

My sil just had her water break last week with no cramping at 35 weeks. They had to induce because she wasn't going into labor, but baby came just about 2 days later and he's totally healthy and home.

Definitely get checked to be sure what it is

1st birthdays 🥲

As our babies first birthdays are starting to come around fairly soon (internally crying😭) I was just wondering if anyone had a birthday present inspiration?!

My issue that I’m struggling with is she’s my second born and I kept things like walkers, activity tables and stuff that we got my first for his first birthday, so just looking for some other ideas. Also thought this might help other mums who are starting to think about birthdays🫶🏼
