Did you try calling your hospital? If you're concerned and can't get in touch with your doctor, call labor and delivery or just go to the hospital. They can test if it's amniotic fluid or something else. Good luck!

Just go to L&D. Better safe than sorry!

Thanks ladies! Right after I posted I heard back fr doc. She said walk round for 30 min w a pad on and if the pad was wet call her back. If not, to not worry about it. Thanks for answering me... Can you tell I'm a little nervous?

Any update?

One more round of leaking during the night. Now kind of constant period cramping. Like achy... So far sounds normal?

I would call.

Thanks ladies, they ended up bringing me in, no amniotic fluid, so they sent me home, with "a little dehydration, and a little high blood pressure" and advised me to stay off my feet. I will be a repeat Csection (this is baby #4 for me) so they didn't want to check me to keep from "starting anything." I still have the cramping and the swollen feet, but the leaking has stopped for now.

Yup, I'm drinking a ton of water!
