Ive been wearing panty liners cos of extra discharge, but what I was wondering is, what sort of discahrge is classed as normal? Mine sort of looks a bit...dirty I guess would be the word, its not brown as such but not creamy colour.
This is the one thing I always worry about, Im cos Im scared Ill look and see blood after having my m/c in July. Baby is moving around HEAPS so Im sure he's fine, but I was just wondering whats normal and whats not? (Im not itchy or anything like that I feel normal) ------------- |

I'll mention it to her as I see her on Tuesday anyways. Im pretty sure its fine as its just like a bit on the liner not like when I wipe or anything. And I can feel my lil boy kicking round in my tummy right now so he seems quite happy  ------------- |

Is there a strong smell with it? If not, its probably fine. I have been having similar issues & had a swab taken to check. Dr said there was a lot of discharge there, but the test results came back fine. So it certainly can be just another one of those niggly preggy things. ------------- http://lilypie.com">

Nah no strong smell, and its just like a tiny amount on the pad, just I notcied the colour of it, but Ive only just started using pads everyday, so cos they are white maybe Im just noticing it more than I did before?.
I'll defintly mention it to my midwife on Tuesday though. ------------- |

Mine varies in colour from whitish to creamy yellow (TMI), which my MW said was just normal preggy stuff. Also been getting more and more the further I go on. Sounds pretty normal to me but check with your MW if you are worried or if it smells etc
If u can feel your bubba kicking around, he's probably happy as  ------------- Chloe (4 years) and Oliver (3 years). |

I get loads of discharge too, don't really remember it happening when I had Maya but definitely had it with the gremlins. Mine can get be dark/cloudy/yellowish/clear or any combination of those, but I agree Sheza, it still worries me from time to time, I find myself squinting at the liner to work out whether it is *too* brown lol - just another pregnancy neurosis!
I use the Active liners coz I find the old pelvic floors aren't as good as they were before they had 13lb of baby bouncing on them  -------------  Maya Grace (28/02/03)

Teehee, take that and multiply it by 3 fat babies and you'll be in my world  For what it's worth tho, my pelvic floors did bounce back OK after Maya, it was the gremlins that killed them.------------- Maya Grace (28/02/03)
