Once in a while (every few days) when I go to the bathroom I notice there is a little bit of fluid in my underware. It's not mucous .. its just like water or urine. Am I leaking fluid? or is it urine?
It's always a very small amount.
Also, my baby is breech, could that be from him bouncing on my bladder causing me to leak urine?
The fluid is clear and odorless ..
thanks!

You need to let your doctor know asap. It could be a slow leak of amniotic fluid. This isn't good at all for the baby.

Usually as the pregnancy progresses women will leak fluid such as discharge,,it will be clear and odor free and usually feel it when sitting or standing up or seeing it in your undergarments, i have noticed this annoying wetness with all 3 of my pregnancies..sometimes pantiliners work if it really bothers you.. if u sneeze,cough,move around etc it will come out...usually it is harmless just urine leaking or pregnancy discharge and no cause for alarm. I think u could wait...if it is indeed amnitotic fluid leaking usually a little rupture closes on its own but to be safe ask your doc when u go in,,,chances are from my experiences it is probably nothing..good luck!

You need to talk to your doctor about this ASAP in case you're leaking amniotic fluid. Your discharge and ... ahem... moisture... in that area will increase during pregnancy, which pretty much means that your underwear will be wet most of the time if you don't start wearing panty liners. You're right about at the right time for that to start happening. It's not a bad thing... your body has to sort of lube up to prepare for labor and delivery. What you're experiencing might be normal, but only your doctor will be able to tell for sure. You should make sure you tell him/her about this as soon as you possibly can.

Definitely call your doctor ASAP. Hopefully it's urine but if it's amniotic fluid, the doc needs to know right away. Better safe than sorry!

To be safe call your doctor. The fluid could be completely normal as discharge is a normal part of pregnancy, but if you are leaking fluid you need medical intervention ASAP.

Call your doctor tonight asap. I was leaking and found out that my water broke. My doctor really made a big deal about the exact time I started leaking. She was extremely concerned about infection. She asked me to come in asap. I started leaking at 9 am and had my baby at 10:18 pm that night. Please call your doctor, just to be on the safe side.

I bet it's urine. Call the dr if you're concerned, even if you are going to the dr in 4 days.

I would go ahead and call, it wouldn't hurt. I'd imagine that it's probably not amniotic fluid, but more like just discharge. I think as far along as you are, you should probably just go ahead and call your doctor.

It could be beer in the underware. My wifee had a lot of beer in her underware during pregnancy.
