Amniotic Fluid? TMI photo
Question. I’ve had some clear and some white discharge. Everything I’ve read says leukorreah should be mild in smell.. but this is a sour/sweaty smell.. should I be worried?
It honestly sounds like urine and/or liquidy discharge, but you can go get checked if you’re worried!
If it is amniotic fluid, then that’s a very small amount and is likely a leak that will heal itself. But again, go get checked if you’re worried! ❤️
thank you! I think I may be seen just to rule that out & any infections!
Anyone else?
Amniotic fluid smells sweet (or so I’m told). Something with a foul or sour smell doesn’t fit with that...and if it was a leak, you’ll definitely have that happen more than once
thank you!!
Just looks like normal discharge. I get so much extra discharge during pregnancy that I wear panty liners everyday.
that’s crazy! Thank you!
It happens to me sometimes but it's sweat ... It gets pretty hot down there 😅
I agree!! Thank you!
Labor nurse here! That just looks like really watery discharge, especially since there’s the white discharge. You’ll have a lot of discharge throughout your pregnancy and it will continuously change consistency. You can call the doctors office and mention it to them and see what they say if you feel you need to. Discharge can have a sweet smell also. As long as it is white (not green, gray, or a yellow color) it’s probably not an infection.
But again, call with any concerns!
Amniotic fluid will continuously leak if it is leaking, even a slow leak will continuously leak.
thank you so much for this! This eased my mind.
Hi dear
