Watery discharge 25 weeks

Hello,

Sorry, I know this is a bit gross, but I'm seeking reassurance / experiences!

I'm 25 weeks and for the last week or so have noticed a big increase in discharge... it's REALLY watery, not mucusy at all. Seems pretty clear though dries on a pad kind of yellow. It's not constant - sometimes I'll feel a kind of small "gush" of it during the day (very similar feeling to when you have a period.) It's definitely not wee!

Does this sound fairly normal? I was assuming it was "one of those pregnancy things" that might be increasing now that I'm getting further along. But then I read about people leaking amniotic fluid and now I've got myself in a bit of a flap about it!

Thanks x

TMI but I had exactly this and it turned out to be really bad thrush 😳 Mine was from about 23-25 weeks and culminated in me bleeding after having a wee - was all thrush!

I had something similar on and off. Ended up wearing pads the furthest along I got because these gushes would be happening often enough and got more as I got more pregnant.
Never got it checked, never been a problem either.
You do end up with more discharge that can be normal if it's clear and not particularly smelly (TMI but by the end of the day doesn't smell like roses either).
If it becomes oddly thick, smelly or as iamloading says is followed by blood spotting then do get checked out.
