I started leaking clear fluid over night, just a trickle. It trickled for 3 or 4 hours, changed sanitary pads 3 times and now dry.
No contractions or pain.
Hospital said to phone later to book induction tomorrow.
But have my waters broken or not?? Should there not be loads of liquid?

Could be hind waters leaking from a small hole that has revealed. The fore waters are in front of the babies head

You need to go to the maternity unit and get checked out...

My hind waters broke and it was a small trickle and I used sanitary towels for it. I had to go to the maternity unit to be put straight onto antibiotics as the risk of infection to you and the baby now the protective sac has broken is quite high. I had my son at 7.27am, 39 hours later, a day had an induction booked for 9am! There's a test they can do to find out whether it is amniotic fluid or just mucus so please go to the maternity unit!! Good luck x
