Atomic Fluid

willowtree · Jan 17th, 2012, 19:11 PM

I'm 35 weeks and 2 days ...and wondering if its normal for atomic fluid to be leaking which i am assuming its that? x

How much is there?

I don't know if it's normal, best to check with your dr or midwife asap. My hubbys cousin started leaking fluid slowly at 34 weeks and carried her son til 38 weeks. They just had her on bed rest and extra fluids.

Are you sure it's not discharge? I've had ALOT of watery discharge the last couple weeks, sometimes it feels like I've peed there is so much. You should def ask your midwife if you are concerned though

I would go to the dr if you were leaking amniotic fluid. It might be pee but if it's amniotic fluid your dr needs to know there is a risk of infection.
