Mine was like cloudy water. I only know that because when mine broke I went and sat on the toilet so it wasn't leaking all over the house. It could be blood tinged or brownish if you have meconium

it should be but can be pink because the blood vessles around the placenta.

Clear (or straw colored & scented).

If you are in labor, have an infection, or baby has passed meconium it could be different than that.

Quoting yummy_mommy89:

They said they wont do one cause it dosn't come out when I walk around.. But i can feel it leak when i'm sitting.. so I'm thinking its not amniotic.. idk?!
