I have had clear discharge my whole pregnancy and I'm 38 weeks. Did it smell different when your water was leaking?? I have some concerns that mine might be. Are you watching your sugar intake?? Whenever I eat candy my daughter never stops moving!! It drives me crazy!! I have lost my mucos plug due to frequent v____al exams I think..... not too sure if it would've come out this soon on it's own. I do have the sharp pains in my cervix and my Dr. told me it's due to the babys head moving in and out of the birthing position. I can understand the lower back pain as well!! Gosh it's impossible to get comfortable sometimes!! I have found that the easiest way for me to get pressure off my back so that I can sleep is to lay on my left side with my left leg straight, put a pillow between your legs and cross your right leg over it bent..... it's kinda like the canopener position we used to jump off the diving board in without your knee being at your chest. You'll be halfway laying on your tummy so that the side of your belly is resting on the bed. It took a little getting used to but it's been wonderful for me. I also sleep with 4 pillows and a body pillow so that helps too!! I understand completely about being tired.... I don't feel like I get anything accomplished during the day but still I'm pooped!! Good luck to you!!

amniotic fluid smells like sweet salt water. Does that makes sense---almost like a salty rose smell???
Rose---ocean water? Ah, that's the best I can do.
