Waters or Urine

How can you tell if you're leaking waters or urine?

I'm 33+4 and know it's probably urine but concerned my waters are leaking. Sorry for the TMI here. Just been to drop the kids off at breakfast club and felt a bit damp and there's a sizeable wet patch in my knickers that's even gone through to my trousers! I didn't feel it come out or anything. I've tried smelling it (gross) but it doesn't really smell like anything... just a normal discharge smell (get a lot of that too but it's definitely liquid).

Bit worried now! Hopefully my bladder is just a bit squished and it's just pee!

Never thought I'd actually hoped I'd wet myself!! Blush

no one on the internet can tell you if it's your waters or your bladder or just watery discharge. please call your midwife/gp who ever is following you. better safe than sorry.

@GreenMeerkat I had this last week and had to be checked out at triage. Was constantly getting wet patches and it didn't smell, was convinced I was peeing and not realising. It was discharge but they'll want to swab you. Was fine/painless. Give them a call or talk to your midwife. They wanted to see me ASAP just to check x

I have a call scheduled with my midwife at midday. Luckily Friday is her day at my surgery, but couldn't get an appointment. Hopefully a she can reassure me or let me know if I need to go to triage. Looking into it I think t might be watery discharge. I usually wear a liner everyday and didn't have one this morning so probably made me notice it more.
