Hi,
I understand your concern.
* Increased clear vaginal discharge is a physiological response of vagina to pregnancy.A good genital hygiene / cleanliness after intercourse .
* It can be ejaculate drained out following previous night sex/ Water from tub being collected in vagina after a tub bath.
* Still you need to exclude other possibilities like-
- Vaginal infection ( with associated itching/ burning/ milky white discharge
- History of blow on abdomen/ fall creating leaking of amniotic fluid. In this case.. the water leakage increases after coughing.. if so you need
Bed rest.
immediate consultation of your gynecologist.
Thanks.
