Hi!
The past couple of weeks I have had on and off cramping, usually in the evening. Last night before bed I had bad pelvic pressure and pains which I hadn't had so bad before and I feel similar this morning.
I have just been out for lunch and a dog walk and every time I stand up or move I get a lot of liquid come out of me. It's not thick and creamy like discharge, and it's not wee. It's watery. I had this at maybe 29 weeks or so..can't quite remember! It was a false alarm and just discharge so I'm unsure if it's that againSad
Is this something I should call the midwife about?

Not something I have experience of but wanted to bump this for you. I’d definitely call the midwife though.

I'd call the midwife as it sounds like it could be your waters, if you're not sure they can do a swab to check if it is or not.

I've been advised that if this happens and im not sure if its my waters or not then to wear a pad and keep checking as it may help me to be able to tell

Yes. You might have ruptured membranes so should be checked due to risk of infection.

Okay thank you everyone, I will call the midwife and see if I can get it checkedSmile
