It sounds like you're questioning whether or not your water may have broken, and this can actually be a hard thing for a lot of women to tell. Usually if your water breaks, it's just a trickle of fluid, and you're afraid to admit it to anyone because you think you peed your pants. And it is normal to pee your pants when you're pregnant because the bladder is right below the uterus, and if the baby moves just right, it might kick out a little bit of urine. So if you feel a trickle or a little tiny gush of fluid, what you want to do is put a pad or a pantie-liner on after going to the bathroom and emptying your bladder, and wait an hour and see if fluid continues to come out. And if it does, then you're not having bladder leakage issues - your water is probably broken.
