  Hi again, i felt permanently damp down below toward the end of my pregnancy, increased blood flow, persperation, etc.. Make sure you drink plenty of fluids, especially cranberry juice, to avoid getting thrush. Denise xxx

  I'm 38 weeks and for the past week have noticed an increase in wetness / discharge - sorry if that's TMI!
  I'm getting to the point now where I'm always rushing to the toilet to see if I've had a show or any sign of my water's breaking. I'm booked in for a section next wednesday so only another week of this paranoia! I don't know what's considered normal, but from reading around it seems like we all experience the same thing at this stage. We were told at my antenatal class to sniff our knickers if we were concerned our waters had broken! Apparently the waters have a distinctive protein / egg white smell quite different from normal bodily discharges!

  I had this too - I was 9 days overdue, I went to be checked out due to baby not moving much and my waters had actually gone and a scan showed not much fluid left so I would get this checked out, especially if you are overdue, I got induced 2 days later as they only like to leave you 4 days with no waters due to infection.
