Alibeebs · Nov 10th, 2009, 03:02 AM

Well last night i put up a post wondering if i should call the hospital because i was leaking a lot!
I did and a MW came out to see me, gave me an internal etc etc..... and it doesnt appear to be my waters and also my cervix is closed but " nice and soft"

So i'm wondering what the hell this water is thats leaking out of me?????

its not urnie....ive been at the loo emptying myself all night.. and also its sweet smelling (kind of smells like semen)

So i dont understand what else is could be if not my waters???

She said to monitor it overnight..i have and its still leaking?

Sounds like waters to me. Especially if it smells sweet. Id ring the ward again and ask for a 2nd opinion

I think it could just be watery discharge - I've had the same thing, not a gush, just there in my underwear, have to change them most days!!

Try not to worry!!!

Yeah i thought it might just be watery discharge but its just been constant.

From half 9 to half 10 last night i changed my undies 3 times! put a pad on after MW had been and its pretty wet but obv i've been asleep and not walking around so its not quite as bad.

The only thing i can think is its VERY heavy watery discharge? or maybe my body pushing out excess fluid for labour?

I had this 2 weeks before i went into labour with my last baby, I think it was just a heavy discharge. When my waters did break I was in no doubt it was them as i was soaking and not only had to keep changing my pants (which had maternity pads on them) but also my trousers.
