If you are leaking amniotic fluid does that mean you will have the baby soon?
But leaking amniotic fluid can happen before the pregnancy is in its last day, and, if it happens 38 weeks before the term, it is called premature rupture of membrane. Usually, premature leaking can be considered the sign of a condition occurring in the mother's body. A bacterial infection or a defect of the amniotic sac, the uterus or the cervix may be the cause. During these episodes, the woman must not douche or have intercourse. So not it is not normal to be leaking amniotic fluid, except when your are close to your due date.

As long as the amniotic fluid leak is occurring at term (37-42 weeks), pink amniotic fluid is quite normal. Amniotic fluid is usually 'straw coloured, however it is completely normal for it to mix with a bit of blood and appear pink.
You are 37 weeks and have fluid leaking but it is not a steady stream could it be your amniotic fluid?
This is tricky. Try laying down, if it continues to come out than it could be your amniotic fluid. Sitting makes this fluid stop or at least slow down. It is very important that if you believe this is amniotic fluid to please contact your doctor ASAP! The baby will need to be delivered within 24hrs to reduce the risk of infection and harm to the baby and you. I suggest you call your doctor if it continues this evening. Good Luck, and no worries!
What does it mean if you are 30 weeks pregnant measuring 36 weeks?

What fluid is in the amniotic sac?
The amniotic sac contains a fluid known as amniotic fluid that is composed of amnion and water after fertilization. About ten weeks later the liquid contains proteins, carbohydrates, lipids and phospholipids, urea and electrolytes, all of which aid in the growth of the fetus. In the latter stages of development the fluid will also contain fetal urine.

What is the fluid in which the developing embryo floats?
amniotic fluid, which is composed mostly of water, fetal skin cells, electrolytes, and chemicals produced by the lungs. this fluid is regulated by the baby's intake and output of the fluid, which is necessary for the baby's nourishment and development. also, before 36 weeks, the fluid is of similar composition to the baby's plasma, but after 36 weeks it is composed mostly of the baby's urine (the baby swallows or "inhales" the amniotic fluid, then excretes or "exhales" the fluid).
