what is this? (TMI most definitely)

So I've had more discharge lately (which I know is normal), but it's not a weird color or smell or anything, so I haven't worried.

Yesterday it was like, wet and clear- definitely a more watery consistency than normal; I read that you can leak amniotic fluid?!  Which I didn't know you could do... I figured it was probably nothing and didn't worry, but this morning it's doing it again.  I smelled it but couldn't really tell if it was "sweet" smelling- I mean, it wasn't like cinnamon rolls or anything, haha!

Has anyone else had this?

It's normal, IMO.  Put on a panty liner.  If you soak it within an hour or two, call your doc.  Otherwise, it's just discharge.  Get used to it!!!  There are a lot more gross things to come

Discharge is completely normal. I wear panty liners now because of it. One of the many joys.

My discharge tends to do different things on different days.  I don't know why, but I'm sure there is a reason for it.  As long as it's not a lot (soaking through a pad) I think you should be OK.

It's normal to have ewcm during pregnancy.

Thanks girls-  I know it's normal to have more than usual (and yes obviously there's more nasty stuff to come), but it's the consistency that worried me.

From what I have read a leak is more constant, like continual fluid coming out and watery than discharge.

Definitely normal...I was at the dr a couple of weeks ago and described this very thing to him, he didn't seem concerned, did an exam, and all is well. The exam was at my request, I don't think he would have done it otherwise.
