What Causes Water To Ooze Out During Pregnancy?

I'm 8 months pregnant. I'm extremely thirsty, just can't drink enough water and also seem to be leaking water as my underwear will get very damp- no odor- and I have to change underwear at least twice to three times a day. The other day I coughed and a bunch of water squirted out. My dr had me come in and did the amniotic fluid test strip thing and it turned a light green. So since the strip didn't change to blue my dr wasn't concerned. But... I can't help but worry. What advice can you give? Thank you.

Hello dear,I.understand your concern.In my opinion leak from vagina might be vaginal discharge or amniotic fluid.As absence of fluid leak is confirmed by strip then mostly it might be watery discharge from vagina.Dont worry it doesn't cause any harm .But vaginal infection should be ruled out because it might lead to preterm labour sometimes.
