Hi,
Thanks for the query.
According to your description, there is possibility of leakage of fluid from gestational sac.
So, better to consult gynecologist once, get examined and go for ultrasound.
By doing speculum examination persistence of leak can be excluded.
Ultrasound helps in finding out the viability of pregnancy and quantity of fluid in gestational sac.
Usually minor tears in the membranes can seal off by themselves.
So, if no active leak is detected during speculum examination and if the ultrasound findings are normal, no need to worry.
Better to careful in future.
If leak is persisting, bed rest, foot end elevation, antibiotics and follow up are needed.
Take care.
