3rd Trimester

UM slightly freaking out!

I am a FTM, and I just leaked a ton of clear, non smelling, watery-ish fluid. I am 35 weeks, and I have not had a lot of discharge through my whole pregnancy. every so often I will have a some that is about as much as you would at peak ovulation. This amount was WAY more than that (like double that)! I had quite a few braxton contractions yesterday, nothing that hurt though. I have been told that a day or so before you start going into labor that you leak fluid! is that true? and should I be packing, and waiting for contractions or water breaking? or no worries its normal?

Re: UM slightly freaking out!

  • It sounds like it could have been your water breaking. To be sure, I would lay down for about 15 minutes. If you are still leaking when you get up and walk around, then I would call your OB. Although, if you want to play it safe, you can always call your OB now and see what he/she says.

  • It could have been your water... no one here is going to be able to tell you for sure. Call your doctor, or head to L&D to get checked. The longer you wait, the longer you risk infection if it was, in fact, your water. 

    I never leaked any fluid prior to my water breaking/labor starting and I have never heard that OWT.

    Also it will not smell like urine, it will smell straw like, or sweet. Good luck

    Not necessarily correct.... my water didn't smell like anything. It literally had no smell whatsoever.

    I was expecting another weird sex question.
