Hi I did review your concern.
Yes this could be either perisac discharge or leaking amnion from a small rupture.
best approach would be to immediately consult a doctor and get a pelvic examination done to exclude impending rupture and prevent infection by starting antibiotics or to induce and fasten the delivery process.

I hope this helps.
wish you all the best.
thank you for choosing healthcaremagic.
