So, FTM here, aka- Paranoid! So I am exactly 15 weeks today. For the past few days (maybe a week) I have been "leaking", like I notice my panties are wet, not drenched, but definitely wet. I chalked it up to DC, then to maybe I am leaking urine, but then after Googling it, I saw people say that it could be amniotic fluid. I am sure it is more likely urine as it does have a stronger odor (ammonia like) but I was curious if anyone else has had this happen? Is it too early for me to be "leaking"? lol
It's more likely to be discharge or urine, but if you think you're leaking amniotic fluid you should contact your doctor. For what it's worth, I don't think amniotic fluid has an ammonia smell. I've seen it described as sweet, or earthy smelling. But I have no personal experience there.
@MamaPigon It's probably discharge, but call your doctor anyways.

It's probably just discharge. I think it changes consistency around that time- if I remember correctly. I think it may depend on color too but I can't remember the smell of amniotic fluid.. But of course if you're nervous you should call your doctor!!
Yes, I know I should call my doctor, but I have an appt next Friday so I thought I would ask others experiences before bumping my appt. Thank you for your feedback!

I would call your doctor as he/she might want to have you come in to get swabbed to determine what it is. Chances are it's increased discharge from pregnancy hormones, but it's always good to check!
I have so much discharge sometimes it's wet on my thighs. And I can feel it coming out. I hope it's discharge for you but mine is EXCESSIVE so don't be alarmed if it is as well.

I had something similar and it was just an excess of discharge for me. I had to wear panty liners for a week or so.
