Discharge Stuff
Posted: 04-20-07 12:41pm

i have a really gross question

ive been having this odd discharge sometimes, like a couple times a day

its really thick and it looks kinda like snot only thicker, if that makes any sence, its only when i wipe though, so i dont think its my plug or anything i dont know

thing is it started out a pale yellowish, i thought it was just tinted a little by my pee, but now its turned a pale greenish

im gonna talk to my doc about this next weeks at my next appintment, only because i dont think its too serious, unless i start having problems

but im not cramping and it doesnt hurt to pee or anything like that, but is it possible that means i have a uti or something, or could it be something else

the discharge is my only "symptom" if it is a uti

Hmm to me it sounds like it could be a uti because that's one of the symptoms i get when i have them but i'm not sure because for me it's usually coupled with other symptoms. Deffinatly mention it at your next appointment

do you take prenatals? This can sometime tint the color of your urine/discharge.

Talk to your Dr. at your next appt. It could easily be an infection, or nothing at all.

becky, that one of the things im thinking it could be (although i thought thrush was in your mouth and it was just called a yeast infection when it was "down below") but the thing is it doesnt itch or anything

sarah, i actualy dont take prenatals, i have such a hard time remembering anything it sucks, i know i should i just never remember to take them

it has stopped today though, so if it doesnt start up again i think ill just wait until thursday when i have my appointment, but i will deffinantly ask my doc

chantigeek, what medicine did they give you, ive never heard of an anitbiotic that you take for 3 days, ususaly you have to take it for 7 at least

having a whitish or clear discharge during pregnancy is normal if it doesn't smell bad and/or isn't itchy. it's called leucorrhoea or leukorrhea. if it is greenish or smelly you really need to check it with your doctor. i had some that was a little yellow but had no odour or itchiness and i checked with my doctor. they did some tests and everything was fine. if you're worried just call the doctor. better safe than sorry.

found this on a website:

Here are signs that you should call your doctor right away:



•spotting or bleeding
•discharge that looks like cottage cheese
•discharge that smells like yeast or bread
•green or yellow discharge
•irritation or itching of the vaginal lips
•pain during urination or sex

These symptoms may mean that you have a yeast infection, bacterial vaginosis, or a sexually transmitted disease (STD).

good luck!
