Leaking water??

I went to work today after having two days off (I wait tables so lots of walking around) and after a few hours I noticed I felt something trickle out of me. My initial thought was that it could be my water because it just felt kind of different, I've had some discharge but it didn't feel as thick (sorry TMI) it literally felt like water. It happened twice at work and then when I came home I laid down for about an hour and then got up to see if I would leak some more. At first nothing was happening and then, gradually, after going up and down the stairs a few times it happened again. I went pee just to make sure it wasn't that and now if I sit on the edge of the couch it's coming out again and since I just went to the bathroom I feel like it's not pee. I did smell it and it didn't smell sweet like a lot of women have said their fluids have smelt like, but it definitely didn't smell like pee either. Any ideas? I know someone's just gonna say call the doctor (which I plan on doing if it doesn't stop soon), but I'd like opinions from other pregnant women.
Thanks!

If you put on a pad and it fills up within and hour its your water..when my water broke it wasn't a gush..it was a slow stream of fluid.

Someone I know  water didnt break as such in a gush but rather leaked out slowly like ur describing. U need to go to hospital or call ur midwife or wat not.As if its ur waters breaking u only have so long to give birth which I think is a few days but not 100% sure so u need to check. If u dont give birth within a certain time u can get a serious infection which puts u and baby at risk
