Wet spot in knickers

Im 21 weeks and have been getting a wet patch in my knickers at the front daily. Its not soaking by any means but just damp by the end of the day.
Is this normal I'm absolutely freaking out about it being amniotic fluid Blush

I'm having similar. I think it's just discharge. I'm just over 17 weeks.
When I've been worried I've been smelling it - am fluid smells sweet like hay apparently

Happy for anyone else to come and tell me I'm wrong and need to get checked out too

It's totally normal. This is probably what's causing your dampness. I stole this from the 'what to expect when you're expecting' website but it's also noted in their books:

"Leukorrhea is the medicalese term for the thin, milky white and mild-smelling (sometimes even odorless) vaginal discharge that many women experience throughout pregnancy."

Some women experience more of it than others though. TMI alert! I personally use panty liners now to stop me from having to change my underwear 2+ times a day because of it. The joys of pregnancy, eh? Grin
