I'm Not Doctor But...
I'm not a doctor but you may have a ruptured cyst or an open infection. Please go to the doctor. I know it's scarry, beleive me I know. But please go, you could get really sick. Even if it heals up it could just open again.

Your probably getting stressed out because your thinking your pregnant, there for every little thing you get, you put as a preg symptom. I've done it many times!!!!!

Have you been taking vitamins? Some make your urine look like lime green koolaid. I took one before that did it to me. I stopped taking them, because I refuse to take anything that makes my piss look like that.

If it starts to itch down there or anything go to the gyno asap!

Green???
Green discharge is something I would definately worry about- particularly if it smells bad. That would be an almost positive sign of some kind of infection.

High temperature and pain would only make me more definate about this.

Go to the doctor. If it's nothing, no harm done, but if it's something, the sooner you go, the better.

White Too..
Thank you guys so much for replying! Is it bad, that when im going to the bathroom, im having white liquid coming out too? It's just a little bit, but it's like a milk color, and only drops of it come out...Is that bad too? But I had told my mother about the lime green, and she said she will take me to the doctor... But is that milky white stuff bad too, or what is it even? Lol. I hope this stuff isnt bad news when I go to the doctor =\ ... Thanks for replying you guys...You guys are really helping me out here...

More Stuff !!
It could be just heavier than normal discharge, or it might be related to the green stuff.

It's the green i'd be more worried about, and the fevers and stuff, i'm glad you are going to the doctor, you can't be too careful.

They'll probably ask you questions about your sex life, so if unless you can talk about that stuff very openly in front of your mum, I would not take her into the actual consultation with you- even if you are nervous going in. You have to be able to be absolutely open and honest with whatever they ask you- ok ?

I'm 27, married, and pregnant with my 2nd child and there is no way I could even mention sex with my mum in the room !!!!!!! She wouldn't care - i'm the one who'd be embarrased !!!!!

Sometimes heavy discharge can look like that- it can kind of mix with urine while you are going to the bathroom, so it looks runnier and stuff.
Let's face it, how often to we look at what's coming out?

But like I siad, it might not be, it might be some kind of other fluid related to the green stuff you saw. The doctor will know for sure. When are you going?

Crap, that's ages away.

Is there nobody who can see you sooner than that? Maybe even take yourself into hospital or something?

I live in australia, I guess our health system is different.

same thing happened to me with my daughter. Had a small leak in the bag and it came out of me. She was late--so she had had her first bowel movement already

Go !!!!
Go to the doctor anyway- you need to have that othe stuff checked out, and if you are pregnant, better to find out now, instead of worrying about that on top of everything else- have your mum wait outside, or better yet- let her be there, she can't kill you in front of the doctor now can she?

He might be able to offer some advice to both of you together, instead of you finding out, the having to worry about telling her yourself.

And you might not even be pregnant, you may just have a bit of an infection.

Go, it'll be a load off your mind
