THe other thing was that since I have been pregnant "normal" vaginal discharge seems to be increased and also sometimes its a creamy white other times it had a greenish tinge and can be quite thick .....Is this normal???

Could possibly be thrush, I would ask your mw or dr about it.

Mine was more of a thick yellow green, sort of clear kinda stuff last time.
Definitely not thrush, I think it's just a normal part of pregnancy. You'll know if you've got thrush.

How preggy are you? I remember being itchy all over with my first. Thankfully that stops when bubs it out. Like instantly stops

Nipples prob is definitely normal, as for the discharge, thick or extra discharge is also normal but green usually indicates infection of some sort, say if you have a cold. I wouldn't usually check it out with anyone unless there was something else along with it, e.g. pain or itchiness down there.

Update:
Today I went to the ladies and when I wiped there was a lot of discharge...like it looked like normal discharge but it seemed more solid and there was a lot more of it like about a 2 x table spoons.
It was creamy white with a tinge to it.
I know I don't have thrush...i guess i freaked out and was thinking the mucus plug had come out but there has been nothing since

I put the bio-oil on my nipples and that helps with the itch. And changing bras so that there is no lace near them (my boobs haven't exploded yet. Which feels wierd).
Noticed bio-oil is on special at Postie Plus, if that's any help.
