Is the 38-week-old baby about to be born?

Patient's question:

I am currently 38 weeks and 4 days pregnant. This morning when I woke up, I noticed a milky white discharge with a slight red tinge, but the amount is not much. I haven't felt any abdominal pain yet. Is this breaking of the water? Could it be a sign that labor is approaching? I urgently need a reply!

Doctor's answer:

Mommy, don't worry, the baby is full term at 37 weeks. If the check-up is normal, there's no need to be nervous. Let nature take its course. Walk more and climb stairs regularly.
