I'm 29 and a half weeks pregnant and my baby has decided to do a lot of squirming about on my badder for the last 2 weeks or so. Last night I was lying in bed and baby decided to jump on my bladder so hard it felt like I nearly peed myself a bit. So about half an hour later I went to the loo and had a little wet patch about the size of a 50p or a bit bigger. Today I was in the car and he did it again, and when I got to the toilet it was wet again like last night. I dont think its discharge as it always dried white/yellowy colour but this just dries away. How do I know if its pee or my waters? Would waters keep on trickling out rather than coming and going?
I put a pad on and lay down and there was nothing. hould I only call the mw if it keeps coming out (it has only happened twice so far)

Sniff it. If it's pee, it'll smell like pee. That's how midwives tell!

I wondered the same thing when it happened to me this morning, but I had just finished on the loo, but she was wriggling and pressing. I think sometimes due to everything being moved it doesn't always empty completely and thats why it happens. But I would have thought if it was water, it would keep on doing it :)

It's probably pee, but if you are worried speak to a MW.

Thank you :)
I phoned the mw and she said waters would probably keep leaking, rather than stop and start. Plus it dried kinda yellow (tmi sorry) rather than creamy white like normal, but didnt smell weird, just like normal I suppose. he just told me to keep an eye on it (I tripped on friday but didnt fall on my bump so I guess thats why I'm super worried), but now I seem to be spending the day worrying about checking my pants for more! Plus I have had no pains or anything.
I wonder if thrush would cause a yellowy watery discharge though? Its watery, not like "normal" thrush I have had???
