August 2022 Moms

Water leaking ?

Not my first but my 3rd, so 2 days ago late afternoon I assumed I had sweat/pee’d myself as my underwear were pretty wet, few hours went by after changing I had some small dime size wet spots and I assumed I’m just having bladder control issues but the last 2 nights I’ve had to get up and change my underwear they have been so wet not enough to soak my pajama shorts my nearest Er/Ob is 2 hrs away so I don’t wanna make a rash decision if I’m just peeing myself has anyone had similar situations happen anything I can do to determine between amniotic fluid or pee besides the smell test because it all just smells like normal not like pee but not super sweet

Re: Water leaking ?

  • No one can answer this question for you except a doctor. If you think it could be amniotic fluid you should go to L&D and have them test it.

    There’s no way to tell other than the strips they use. Even when my water was visible running down my legs after I felt it pop the nurse still tested it. So yeah, give them a call so they can advise. But be prepared to have to go in. 

    ETA: oops didn’t realize this was on august lol just saw it on the front page and forgot to check
