Watery, pink discharge
nancyvi
member
I'm exactly 33 weeks today. During the night I felt a little "leak" which, to be honest, I thought was pee. Since I was dead tired, and I was wearing a panty liner, I did not feel like I had to do anything about it and just went back to sleep. Well, when I got up this morning (about an hour and a half ago), I sit on the toilet to find my liner soaked and pink. The TP was also light pink when I wiped. I had yet to see any blood during this pregnancy, so that was certainly new for me. I've been keeping my eye on it and there is almost no more blood, but I have kept leaking watery, slightly mucous-y, drops. Baby's heartbeat is great (128 on the doppler), and he's moving like normal. I haven't had any discomfort or BHs (that I've noticed). I'm basically taking it easy and keeping an eye on it.
I guess my question is whether this is normal or not, and what, if anything, can it mean? Should I call the doc? Have any of the ST+Ms had anything like this happen?

So when I woke up this morning and went to pee I found my liner soaked and pink. Kept leaking a bit at a time for a couple of hours and at some point I lost the mucus plug. Got tired of waiting for doc to call back so we headed for L&D. As soon as I got out of the car the gush came out! Got admitted and I'm already 2 1/2 cm dilated. Got an IV going and everything. Doc is giving me six hours to see if I progress on my own (just a couple of contractions so far). And then I'll probably get pitosin.
So ladies please keep me in your thoughts and prayers. I'm only 33 weeks and this guy just had to make an early entrance!
Update:
I'm here! I'm here! And so is Baby Sebastian!!!!
First, let me thank you so much ladies for all the awesome vibes you sent our way. They did their job!
I labored naturally from noon to 7:00pm but sadly did not progress so they started me on pitosin at that time. After 7 more ours of *wonderful* pitosin contractions I was barely 3cm dilated. So, I cave and got the epidural. I slept and by 5am I felt the urge to push. Got another check and was 10cm and the baby was ready to come out! Quick call to the doc and the NICU ladies and Sebastian was out in two contractions!! He was born Sunday morning at 5:35am!
He was taken to NICU right away and DH went with him. He weighed 4 pounds, 13 ounces, and measured 18 inches long! And such a little fighter!! He was breathing on his own less than 12 hours after birth. And he's been out of the heat lamp since noon today! He's still being fed mostly through a feeding tube but he's starting to figure put what my boobs are for. LOL! I've been pumping every three ours and they are adding my colostrum to his formula, which is awesome.
Oh! And I've been great! I was out to see him about four hours after birth and was already feeling like myself. Just one stitch down there (small baby ) and basically just taking some Motrin every 8 hours. It has been hectic though so it has taken me this long to update. Sorry about that!
I'll be going home today but Sebastian will remain in the NICU for a few more days. It will all depend on his progress. But judging by how my little warrior has done so far, I'm sure we'll have him home very soon! I'm posting pictures for your enjoyment! (That's him resting on mama's chest after a boob-playing session. So tired!) He has a full head of hair and (of course) he's the most beautiful thing I've ever seen.
Lots of love to you ladies!!
ETA: yes, I'm typing this on mobile while pumping!! (Aren't we women awesome creatures?) LOL!! Oh, and I guess I'll have to update my siggy when I get to a computer.
