Q: Does This Happen to Anyone Else??

For the past month or so I have been getting a discharge. Its white and not very thick and it doesnt have an odor but it seems like everytime I go to the bathroom there is more in my underwear. I know this sounds kinda gross but is this normal cause I am pregnant?? My doc always gives me urine tests when I go in and he hasnt told me anything but I havent asked him about it. Does this happen to any other pregnant women out there?

So long as it is white or clear and odour free then it's fine.
Some people say like egg white or gross but wet clear snot...
If it is smelly, yellow, greenish, then you probably have an infection and need to see a doctor, but yours sounds like perfectly normal healthy discharge, congrats. Wink

I am not currently pregnant, we are trying though :d anyways, when I was preggy with my daughter I had so much discharge just like you discribed. It freaked me out because normally I never had anything like that ( just the normal ammount). I asked my doctor about it and she said it was normal and that it would eventually decrease over time, and it did but it totally grossed me out when it was there. Oh the joys of pregnancy!!!! Wink

Noooooooooooooooooooo, you don't want to stop discharge!!!

Sorry gross maybe.

Discharge is the body's natural cleaning system, block that up and watch infections rage.
See your discharge as a sign your body is well and healthy and cleaning itself effectively.
Be proud of your discharge Wink

But if you want to make sure, just go to the doctors. I had some white/clear discharge too but it ended up to be a yeast infection. Weird. It didnt have any type of odor neither but hey. I never would've guessed.
