Sorry if TMI, but leakage question...

So yesterday I was at a birthday party (for a young baby) and we were all outside playing various yard games, chatting, etc.  It was VERY hot and humid but was enjoyable.  While playing bag toss, I noticed one or two drops leaking from "down there" toward the front where you'd pee--I instantly got nervous as I've had a miscarriage before--and when I pushed I could feel some more come out so I immediately went to the bathroom.  My underwear had some wet spots on it (clear or whitish) but it stopped, I went to the bathroom, and then after that it was fine.  I'm wondering if you guys have any insight--could this just have been urine or discharge?  I noticed I get more discharge since it's been so warm out plus I am a little over 22 weeks.  I'm just worried if it could be amniotic fluid?  Thanks in advance!!

  • If it's amniotic fluid it will have a sweet smell. It doesn't smell anything like urine but it can just be discharge.

  • If you're worried call your doctor. But leaking and accidentally peeing a little is very common.
  • If it was clear and whitish then it was probably discharge. It's normal. If you feel more of a gush or trickling of clear liquid that continues then that is more of a sign of amniotic fluid. And if you loose that much you should call your doctor. But a little is normal and nothing to worry about.

    There are a few threads about this. Could provide you with some more information.

    Thank you all!  I'm not very worried (although, I worry about everything so it wouldn't be abnormal for me lol!) but yeah it was just a few trickles and then stopped so I'm sure it's nothing major.  Thank you.
