Advice please???

As some of you may have read in an early post I wrote this week, I've been unsure as to whether or not I'm going into labour. Sorry for the tmi but my husband and I just had sex, I cleaned up straight after (as I usually do) then when I got up to go to the toilet I had some liquid run down the length of my thighs both sides. It was to much to be seen and had no smell to it, I didn't feel like I needed a wee and It didn't feel like I was weeing. I'll be 37 weeks as of tomorrow (Thursday) do you think this could of been my waters breaking?

Thank you for all your comments, I haven't had any change or another lot come out (though my panties and trousers have been constantly damp). I'll keep you posted :-)

U should see a doc bt it definitely sound's like ur waters leaking. It happened to me with my son. I was in labor, contraction's & all and water kept leaking even after I lost my mucus plug. The doc broke my water hour's later & then it gushed all over the bed. There is no perfect way it comes

Your water bag could be fractured this happened to me before after intercourse with hubby when you go to the hospital they will either let u sit for a few hours to see if the bag brakes fully on its own or the doctor with brake it. Or it could be semen like the other lady said only one way to find out....

My water ruptured at 29 weeks and I didn't start having contractions till about 4 hours later. Contractions don't always come right after....

Doctor's sent me to the hospital cause I had same thing happen to me wanted to check make sure my water hadn't broken well i was so embarrassed when they said it was semen so it could be semen but if it was your water you would be getting very strong contractions

Definitely not semen or discharge, way to much of it and not the right consistency and has no smell, could have been urine I just didn't feel it come out, only run down my legs.

If it's your water it will continue to leak, it won't just be a one time thing. Like pp said, lay down for 20-30 minutes then stand up and see if anything comes out. It is most likely discharge or semen but just to be sure.

When I was 37 weeks with my baby after sex my water did broke but it wasn't gushing or anything it was coming out  Lil by Lil so I went to the hospital because I knew it was my water and they actually wanted to send me home thinking I was lying until I did some squats and more came out and they tested it .. my water didn't broke properly until 24 hrs later until the damn doct. Decided to check me and realised my water was broken from the top, because of my baby stayed there 24 hrs after my water broke and I was on antibiotics he had to stay a week on the nicu! Well hope it helps a Lil .. by the way I had no contractions until after they ripped me from the bottom

It sounds like it was the rest of the semen.. When you have sex you don't get it all out.. I've done this a lot..

Is this your first baby. Not trying to be rude or nothing, just wondering. If so then when you go in labour you will know. Good you are able to have sex. Me and my is not able to do no more sex. I'm 27 weeks and my doctor to me I had to lay me sex Appeal down until I have my baby. WOW  what an awful thing.

If it didn't have a smell then it could be. Put a pad on and lay down for a little bit. If you keep leaking then it's probably your water
