Difficult to say! But as it is whitish it does sound more like excess discharge. Put a pad on and keep an eye on it maybe? If it continues then give mw or labour ward a call and they could have a look for you x

I would call the MW, and she shouldn't make you feel stupid, if she is maybe you need to bring that to her attention

you shouldn't be made to feel stupid, but fluid leak is nothing to play around with.

I thought I was leaking a few weeks ago, and went to L&D and didn't call my doctor. That is what I'd do is go to the hospital to be safe then sorry, they will check you to see if it is fluid.

it just sounds like discharge to me hun. Its normal to leak lots of discharge. i dont think its owt to worry about. But if u want reassurance then just ring midwife, its part of her job to reassure u n clear up any worries u may have. If she tries to make u feel stupid just ignore her xx
