I read that aquarium ph test strips will work the same.
5/6 is discharge or urine and 7/8 is amniotic fluid!

They kept telling me I peed myself with my first bc the test came back negative.  I knew it wasn't pee. If you think it was your water be persistent.  I feel like if I had let them send me home instead of demanding a few re tests I would have lost my daughter.  My water broke but I never had real contractions after and had to be induced!

Oh okay and you know what in California they don't do the test strips no more well atleast there not suppose to because my doc said there not 100 percent accurate they pick up diff body juices too that's why they swipe your cervix now and take it to the lab. But glad to know you and bby are fine :)

It could have been that's how mines happen I was walking to water then ALL of a sudden I felt my panties get wet. I thought ok maybe its discharge or my mucus plug because i was loosing my plug for 3 weeks already. So I payed it no never mind and continued in to walmart to shop. As I was walking around I noticed I was getting quite moist down there so as I was done I went to the bathroom before I left. When I checked my undies they were super soaked and then I started to leak as I was walking home. I knew my water broke. I took a shower than headed to L&D long story short lol they checked me and the nurse said oh you peed yourself I kept telling her no I didnt -_- ugh the struggle. And then she swiped my cervix and took the results to the lab sure nuff my water did break .my doc came in and broke the rest 3 hours later I had my handsome bby boy whob is 2:weeks nowvall natural no meds ;) I hope your next
