  I've had quite a bit of white discharge and my dr said as long as it's creamy or egg-white texture, it's fine. It's been pretty abundant and thin, although it's never run down my leg.

  If you're worried, it can't hurt to call.

  Thanks, I tried calling today but their office is closed for the holiday.  If it continues, I'll be calling tomorrow.  LO is moving around like crazy so I know she's ok but I'm just hoping it's not an infection or something. 

  But the way you described it, that's exactly how it was....egg-white textured, just a little thinner.

  She also said as long as it's white or cloudy, it's fine. Any other colour + different smell is a sign of infection.

  Of course they are closed when you want to speak to someone! I would call again tomorrow just to be sure.

  is it white in color or does it have white chunks (for lack of better word)?  When my water broke it was clear in color with white stuff which was the coating thats on the baby (can't think of the name either, its one of those days)

  if you are worried i would call your doctors answering service, the office may be closed but they still have a responsibility to answer your questions and calls regardless, this is what you pay them so much money for! call them and describe it to them, it is a very simple test that takes 2 minutes for them to check if it is amniotic fluid- maybe they could meet you in the office to quickly do the test so you don't have to go to L&D and could have some peace of mind

  it was very watery with no chunks.  Had there been chunks I'd of assumed yeast infection but I forgot about that stuff too (I can't think of the name either haha)

  I would still call to be sure, but yes I experienced this too, I as well thought I had peed myself and when I went in my doctor examined, kind of laughed and said just one of those perks of pregnancy, greatly increased vaginal discharge... So it all turned out fine for me. Make sure you call tomorrow tho just to be sure, and make sure you're doing you're kick counts, if the baby stops moving more than normal I'd go to emerg.
