i know this might sound kind of gross and maybe tmi but i was wondering.. through this pregnancy i have always had increased discharge and it was like a white milky type which is normal and this morning when i went to the bathroom my panty liner was really wet with what i think is discharge but it was yellowish and more watery.. it has like a hard to explain kind of smell to it kind of sweet maybe but not really sweet.. i dont know it is just hard to explain... do you think this is normal or do you think i could be leaking amniotic fluid? i am not feeling any pain or anything so i think it is just regular discharge. does anyone know about this?!? i am 34 weeks tomorrow (well technically today )

theres a possibility it could be amniotic fluid, from sites ive read its a hay color with a sweet smell, but it coudl also be normal discharge, but i would def go get checked out asap. to be on the safe side.

i had a doctor appointment today anyway so i found out that it must be just discharge because amniotic fluid is clear?!? thats what she said and she also said that it would most likely show up in my urine test... so i guess it is normal.
