My waters were of a sticky clear consistency and they leaked constantly for 2 days before my hind waters were actually broken by the hospital midwife. Had to wear a maternity pad and showed the midwife when I got to the hospital to make sure everything was A-Ok!! I would contact your LMC just to be on the safe side]]> Fri, 22 Aug 2008 10:49:53 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=20286&PID=472641&title=fluid-leakage-tmi-enclosed#472641 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=20286&PID=472532&title=fluid-leakage-tmi-enclosed#472532 Author: Anna

Same here... def not pink and not as a result of 'special cuddles', if you are worried stick on a pad to show to the midwife. Also when i leaked it was a lot, not just a little bit but I guess that could vary.]]> Fri, 22 Aug 2008 08:24:36 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=20286&PID=472532&title=fluid-leakage-tmi-enclosed#472532 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=20286&PID=472507&title=fluid-leakage-tmi-enclosed#472507 Author: cuppatea

When mine leaked they were clear and smelt like semen (tmi). After the initial leak I would notice it whenever baby moved about or when I moved, ie going from sitting to standing.

Not sure about the pink, it almost sounds as though a small amount of blood is mixing with whatever is leaking out. I would definitely contact your LMC about it. Also not to be too gross but are you and your DH using protection cos if not it could just be the man juice coming out and perhaps some blood from irritation to the cervix from the special cuddles.]]> Fri, 22 Aug 2008 07:46:52 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=20286&PID=472507&title=fluid-leakage-tmi-enclosed#472507 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=20286&PID=472506&title=fluid-leakage-tmi-enclosed#472506 Author: MissAngel

Err.. I would say that sounds a lot like amniotic fluid.
Have you let your midwife know? I would do that straight away! ]]> Fri, 22 Aug 2008 07:44:14 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=20286&PID=472506&title=fluid-leakage-tmi-enclosed#472506 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=20286&PID=472474&title=fluid-leakage-tmi-enclosed#472474 Author: kriss
