Should I Be Worried For Water Discharge During Pregnancy?

im 17 weeks pregnant...and this afternoon after my shower which i took standing up, when i got out while drying off i felt a rush of water coming from my vagina. I wiped a few times and it gushed again but now theres nothing. I want to know if it was just water from showering or should i be worried that my amniotic sac is broken?

Hello dear,I understand your concern.In my opinion if there is gush of loss of fluid then the vaginal examination is necessary to rule
out leak of any amniotic fluid .It might be vaginal discharge also.Anyways examination helps in definite diagnosis.Relax and consult doctor.
