Leaking waters

My first child was born prematurely at 30 weeks and I’m currently 19 weeks pregnant with my second.
I had the cervical stitch last week as I have an incompetent and short cervix.
After a swab this week they’ve told me I’m leaking amniotic fluid! I haven’t noticed any leaking but do have small amounts of pink ish discharge after wiping once or twice a day. In this amniotic fluid?!
Has anyone else ever been in a similar situation?
I was tested for infections and don’t have any but they’re saying the prognosis for baby is very slim at this point.
I'm totally stuck as to where I go from here and just looking for advice?

Sorry I have no experience of this but didn't want to read and run- really hope they can keep baby inside for as long as possible. All the best x

Mine didn’t go as early as you but mine went at 29 weeks and my child wasn’t born until 35 weeks. I was kept in hospital and on ABs until they were born.

Mine continued to replace and leak continually.

Fingers crossed for you.

My waters broke at 19 weeks. The doctor said my baby was not viable and i would need to be induced. I refused. I stayed pregnant till 27 weeks when I got an infection- big risk with ruptured waters- and my baby was born. Very poorly but shes now 8 years old. I'm aware we were extraordinarily lucky. Ask the drs as many questions as you can and I wish you all the best. My waters were pink tinged initially and then yellowish after.
