3rd Trimester

29 weeks - worried about a slow leak?

Hi guys, Im a little worried here.

i havent had a concern until just now- For a few weeks ive notice a huge increase in discharge. Im 29 weeks today!
the discharge is completely clear and doesn't usually have a smell. I can always feel it come out, its really hot and watery, wets the whole crotch part of my underwear,sometimes dampening my pants a tiny bit, sometimes has white flakes.Sometimes happens more than once in a day sometimes happens once a week....
Sometimes, when i sit on the toilet, i drip. it is clear or sometimes cloudy, which made me just think its discharge. 
This does not happen everyday, maybe every second to every 3 or 4th day... Which has also made me think its discharge.. As would a fluid leak be frequently. not every day or so or just on occassion

The only reason i worry now is because im on nightshift and whilst rushing to do something i felt a huge gush down there, went to the toilet and my undies are wet, not enough to run down my legs but enough to dampem my pants a small bit i can feel when i walk. It doesnt smell and honestly just felt like water coming out. its just really weird for me to look and feel like ive pee'd myself, when i havent.
Ive googled it and it gives me no help, very contradicting. Can someone shed some light please. is all of this normal discharge behavious or something else

  • I would call your doctor. If you think your water is breaking you don't want to take any chances. We don't know your medical history or how your pregnancy has been, we are not medical professionals.

    I had this concern in the 2nd trimester. Turns out I just have watery discharge plus slight incontinence. You can get a test and pelvic exam to see if it's amniotic fluid or not. That's really the only way to know what it is.
  • I asked my doctor about this yesterday.  She said to call if I get a gush, which is sounds like you did.  I would call just to be safe.
