Q: leaking amniotic fluid?

for a few week ive been getting the feeling that im weeing myself, (sorry for the tmi) but i smelt it and it didnt smell like urine.
ive had to wear pantyliners which get full within a couple of hours.
its worse when i get up in the morning, as soon as i stand up i feel it, it also similar to af.

could it be fluid or very watery discharge?
thanks

I'd call the Dr ASAP. I had the same thing with my first pregnancy and the Dr's wouldn't do anything (personally, I think it was because I was only 17 at the time and I don't think they believed me!). My daughter was born dehydrated, and there was no amniotic fluid present at the birth (written on her birth record). You're not wasting their time! Best of luck!

You definitely are NOT wasting their time. They want you to call if anything abnormal is happening to make sure there is nothing serious going on they need to address! Good luck!

I agree, call your doctor. You need to make sure that it's NOT amniotic fluid you are leaking. Good luck hun.

Hello, I would deff call your midwife/doc just to make sure everything is okay. Soaking pantyliners and it not being urine would deff worry me as it could be amniotic fluid. How many weeks are you? Give your doctor a call just to be on the safe side :)
Good Luck, xx
