Amniotic fluid leaking? Sorry if TMI

Hi all, looking for a bit of advice here
Again sorry if tmi with the pics

I am 38+5 and have been leaking some sort of fluid.
First photo - 3am
Second - 4am
Third - 6am
Had some more of the same kind around 11am and then absolutely nothing until last photo at 5pm

What do you all think? I don’t live close to the hospital, it means calling out family and don’t want to excited/scare any body waste hospital staff time.
If it was amniotic fluid im sure I would have had some between the 4-5 hours I barley had any?
It seems to be really really watery with a slight muscasy bit sometimes.
I don’t exactly feel anything ‘gushing out’ either and only notice it’s their if I check. Is fluid meant to leak constant or can it be short bursts?
First time mum here and not sure what to do xx

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Contact the hospital, it could be your hind waters that have broken. When I had my eldest, her waters broke... but it was the back ones. So no gush, not even a steady trickle, but much as you describe.

And good luck! Exciting Smile

Can you contact your day unit and explain to them, ask if they will carry out a rom test. If it is your waters they'd need to know so they can keep a bit of an eye on you
