Thursday I woke with an amount of wetness in my jammy trousers. I spoke to a midwife who said if there wasn't a consistent flow then it's most likely vaginal mucous. It is a clear fluid and watery. It didn't continue to leak so I've put it down to mucous.
I'm still getting little gushes of it and I'm feeling anxious. Why the sudden change in mucous type and why is it watery?
Also I can't tell if baby is moving enough. She moves a little, infrequently, is she just cramped for space? Is she sleeping? I've tried laying down and a cold drink and feel something but still worrying.
I don't want to call the midwife when they are already so very busy if all I'm doing is, yet again, worrying about nothing. I'm 40 +2 weeks and first time clueless mum!
I was just trying to figure out what watery discharge is (first time and dont know what am I actually leaking - my mid-wife said it might be urine as its coin size and not consistent). Although I would insist on a pH test on 23rd April appointment.
But I just read that if you lie down for 30 minutes and suddenly get-up and feel a gush of discharge its most likely your water - try it and see if you can figure out something (myself lying down to make sure its not my waters, I am only 27 weeks and I have my a little-late honeymoon planned next week)
