Leakage at 39wks pregnant

So today and the other day I have been having some leakage enough so that I have to change my undies it's not discharge. I'm not sure if it's urine or my water leaking, I'm thinking I should call my Dr or not b/c I don't think I'm going into labor, I'm not having steady contractions. But the leakage kinda smells funny not bad but different... What should I do??

I don't know if this is true, but I've read before that your 'water' has sort of a sweet smell as opposed to urine which obviously stinks. lol

Oh yeah I'd call OB just in case.

Have it checked out. If it is your water leaking, your dr might want to see you! 24 hours after your water breaks a lot of drs will want you to have the baby due to the risk of infection. I would go ahead and call now, rather than over turkey dinner

yeah it is kinda sweet I wanted to tell my husband when I was telling him I was leaking but I thought oh he'll probably think I'm crazy, well he does anyways, b/c after I told him I was leaking he's like that's crazy, that's crazy, I guess he's not ready for me to go into labor yet, LOL

I would call the doc.  Based on my experience, I woke up early in the morning and had to pee so bad.  I did but once I was done I still felt like I had to go and there was a little leakage.  I called my doc and he said he didn't think it was labor but to go to hospital and check and see.  I did and when they examined me My water completely broke 3 weeks early.  Always better to be safe than sorry.

I would call your OB just to be on the safe side. It can't hurt. Plus better now than tomorow!
