I would go get that checked out. Probably nothing but could be UTI or they may wanna rule out your waters leaking. I had that leaky sensation with my youngest and a UTI that needed antibiotics.

Better to be safe than sorry xxx

Hey my friend did when she fell with Ivf twins, she was fine and they are now 6 months. But having said that, if still make the call to be sure, she said she'd wake up like she'd wet the bed. Tmi sorry 😋

Call your midwife to be assessed, to make sure your waters have not broken. In my trust the number you would call would be delivery suite, call whatever 24hr contact number your midwife has given you. Also keep a pad on till they see you so they can see what the fluid looks like, colour, smell etc :)

Please get that checked out it could be a number of things... waters breaking or cervix opening.

Wishing it all fine xxx

You should have a 24 hour number on the front of your green notes, if it's waters then you need a course of antibiotics for 10 days, mine waters went at 19 weeks, message me if you need any advice x

Was it your waters? It's called PPROM, there is an amazing Facebook group called PPROM...little heartbeats support that you should join, they will send you an information pack with how doctors should treat you as often they don't know. If your waters go you are at a higher risk of infection hence the antibiotics. Your waters can replenish or stay at the same level even if you continue to leak but you should be monitored closely now with scans and bloods. Are you feeling ok, what have doctors said?

I'm 21+4 with no fluid x

Please don't worry, if they aren't concerned about you then that's a good sign. I was the same I panicked but I was ok! Have they checked baby? Can they see fluid? X

Yes there is some but I don't know how much the lady that scanned me didn't tell us much only that there wasn't enough fluid to get a clear picture of baby so think that's why I've been refered what was your outcome?

It's good there is some fluid, and good that it's happened past 20 weeks. I'm still pregnant and the doctors are more positive as it's been 2.5weeks. You just need to watch for infection, I'm guessing they have done your bloods and pee? You need to ask for antibiotics for ten days , I'll message you the treatment guidelines x
