Somone Tell Me What You Think..braxton Hicks?discharge?!?
Posted: 06-10-04 23:19pm

Ok this is the story heather has had a whitish discharge now 2 times today that made it look like she peed herself but obviously was not and has been having sharp pains in her "crotch" area off and on all day like contractions or somthing is that what braxton hicks is or could be? If not what can this be if anyone knows please let us know, we have had these pains before but never kept on with them with discharge so any help would be greatly appreciated thanks

Hey!
I had the exact same thing! Dont mean to get personal, but have u two has sex in the past few days? Cuz my doc told me what happens later in pregnancy, is that after a cuple has sex, the males sperm seems to ball up inside the woman and can come out within the next 1-3 days at once and can pass for as a mucus plug. Thats what happened when I thought I lost my mucus plug but it was just that... A little embarrassing but I think it happpens to lots of people!
As for the braxton hicks, as long as they're not consistent and u cant time em apart, then everything's okay. But if its very bad pain and ur really worried then u should see a doc but tell heather to walk around a little bit. It might be some stress or if shes been doing a lot within the past few days which her body isnt used to, it could cause pain. I stressed myself out too much yesterday and got pains and that and I was stuck onm bedrest for today but since I feel better I think I can get off it tomorrow or saturday. So hopefully thats all it is and if ur worried tho, call ur doc. Smile

No contractions are in the back and in ur tummy they feel like period cramps but what ur feelin is prolly the pressure of the head comin down which is completely normal but if ur worried about em then go to the docs

I had the same thing yesturday, lol not trying to get to personal or anything, but me and kevin had sex the night before, and I got this weird pain in my side, like that stretching muscle pain from your uterus growin, and I turned over on my side, and a bunch just gushed out of me, I was like oh my god! What was that?!?! So I ran to the bathroom and it looked all white and almost kinda chunky, like curdled cum...Lol like what milk looks like all curdled, but then I remembered shaunas story about the mucus plug, and how its was cum, and then I made sure there wasnt no blood, and I wasnt in any pain, and I wiped it all away and no more came out, so it was more than likely nothing... Its happened before too... And also, now after me and kevin have sex when I moved the tinyest little muscle all the cum just gushes out, when it used to just leak out, so im guessing the baby pushes most of it out and then traps the rest, and then it comes out all nasty looking a day or 2 later... Lol im sorry if thats tmi...

Well it shouldnt be the baby dropping yet.. Shes only 27 weeks right? I think it was 27? Yea and the pains.. I would call the doc if they persistt...But it wont be labor contractions to go to the hospital unless their close together. They could be braxton hicks. I hear sometimes they can cause a little pain? But ive had lots of pains too in my back and stuff and then it ended up going away. Its probably how the baby is positioned.

Im 28 weeks today Smile all I know is its a lil painful when im walkin around adn all of a sudden get a really bad pain and have to stop what im doing for like a min. That happened yesturday when we were shoppin. Then they stop and then it came back before I went to sleep and went away(fell asleep on couch infront of a fan lol) then I woke up and the pain was like a cramping feeling in my lower stomach and lower back pain. If they continue ill call my doc but I hope its nothin to serious hopefully its just mackers sittin all weird or somethin?

I get some painful braxton hicks... And I got back pains all the time. I dont think you should worry too much unless its like really bad pain, and they keep coming back like continuously... Like every 10 mins or so.... I think one every few hours wouldnt even be bad, but I could be wrong, but I get painful ones and nothings happened yet! I get really bad chest pains too...

I heard the baby can drop up to 8 weeks before ur due date bu im not sure. I'm 33 and a half and mine hasnt dropped yet, but some peoples around this time do. Also, u definetly will experience all sorts of pains, pains in the lower crotch area side pains (most likely ligaments) back pain, braxton hicks, etc. Its only if u can time them apart that u should be worried. Sometimes my braxton hciks can get pretty bad but I cant time em apart and they go away when I stand up so thats a sign that its only fake contractions. But if u really are worried, u should talk to ur doc just in case.

It could be stretching. Dropping can start around 34 wks on.

Yea my doc said my pains were how he was sittin and ligament pains most likely. But as if they get close together or severe. Normally dropping happens 2-3 weeks before delivery in 1st pregnancys statistically* so like jenn said 35 weeks and on*

Like the girls said the pains everyone gets. I've been having pains now for two weeks. As for the discharge her hormones levels are increasing as she is getting closer to her due date. I my self feel like I pee on myself
eash day I feel like I discharge more. It feels nasty but it something else that we have to deal with.
