A tmi question, sorry...
Hi all
I'll be 26w tomorrow. I know I asked this question when I was pg with Jessie, and I even got myself checked out, but the two midwives couldn't agree on the cause, and I ended up really confused... I'm not sure if this is the same thing, but I thought I'd ask. How do you know if you're leaking AF? I'm not gushing or anything, but I've felt quite wet all day. I'm not in huge pain or anything, but I've been uncomfortable all day too, mainly like a very mild period pain. I know it's not the same as when my waters broke, but I just don't feel right. One MW said last time that it was thrush, which I doubted as I had no itching or anything else, and the other said it wasn't that, that it was just my cervix softening up and something or other coming away. I suspected that that might well be the case, but I was a lot further along then. I'm not massively concerned atm, but I don't feel quite settled either. I'm not off to hospital or anything unless it gets worse, but I'd kinda like some reassurance if you have any. Lucy xx |

I know you can test with a PH test if the liquid is AF. Have you asked your current midwife/OBGYN about it? I'd give them a quick call, just to let them know what's going on, in case they do want you to come in. cu nicole |

Hi
I started feeling leaks a few weeks before I was about to give birth, I kept going to the hossy to be checked but they said it was just a discharge, a day before she arrived the leak was heavyer and like a straw colour, again I went to the hossy to be checked and again was told it was just a discharge. The next morning my waters went with a pop and a gush and the colour of the waters was the same as the said discharge. I mentioned it to the midwife after giving birth and she said it was probably my back waters that were leaking. Thing is with me I was full term so risk was pretty low where as you're only 26 weeks gone so there's more risk if you are leaking and I would get it checked out if I was in your position. april "lu-lu" wrote in message ...

It's common to be more wet than normal, but any sort of cramping or AF
feelings should be checked out. It might well be exactly what you had last time, or it might not. Don't risk it, and go get yourself looked at by one of your midwives. Hopefully it's nothing, but I always say trust your gut. -- Jamie Clark www.ClarkDigitalArts.com "lu-lu" wrote in message ... Hi all I'll be 26w tomorrow.

Hi all
Thanks for your resposnses. It all got kinda swept aside for a bit as Jessie can down with a really nasty ear and throat infection and got pretty sick pretty quickly, so I've only really just had a moment to myself.. I'm feeling a bit better today, but I'm going to keep an eye on it, and call the midwife if necessary... I think maybe it's just one of those pregnancy type things, that you just don't hear about cos no one wants to bring it up I'm back of to the sofa now before Jessie realises I've stood up and left her for a whole minute! Thanks again x Lucy x |
