Is there any ladies out there who have been or who are pregnant and got white creamy kinda thick {kinda} discharge?? I don't have a whole lot, a teeny bit in my panties once in a while but thats it. Someone told me she got it in pregnancy and it increases as it goes on. But I wanted more info. I don't know if it has an odor cuz I didn't sniff it? lol but I know I don't have an infection cuz I can always feel them. Any clues?? Thanks and sorry for asking so many questions, one after another! Thanks!!

omg, i had the same exact problem, and the doctors just said to keep taking the monistat. but the infection always came back a month later. it was horrible. but i had my baby 3 months ago and i haven't had an infection yet, so i guess it goes away after you have the baby.

It is normal as long as there is no itching or burning or odor. If there are any of those abnormal symptoms present contact your OB Gyn. If you feel any cramping or there is a brownish tint, or blood present contact your OB immediately.
I don't know how far along you are or I could be more specific. Rule of thumb is that if you feel there is anything out of the ordinary or you just don't feel right contact your doctor. It is better to ask a question and feel silly then ending up in the hospital.
A good book to get is What to Expect When You are Expecting.

Discharge is normal in a pregnancy. If there is an odor I'd suppose you'd know it or a really good friend would tell you (lol). Wear panty liners and ask your doctor next time you have an appt.

During pregnancy, you've got all sorts of hormones shooting thru your system. It's normal to have an increase of discharge as long as there's no noticeably foul odor or abnormal color. You'd probably notice if there was a foul odor without 'sniffing' it (eeew! lol!) It's just one of the many pleasant things pregnant women get to experience. Wait til the hemorrhoids come along ...FUN!

Sounds normal. It's leukorrhea, you get it when you're not pregnant, too, but you get more when you are. "It's odorless or mild-smelling milky fluid discharge. There's more of it now, partly because of increased estrogen production and greater blood flow to the vaginal area. This discharge is made up of secretions from the cervix and vagina, old cells from the walls of the vagina, and normal bacterial flora from the vagina." And you're likely to notice more the closer you get to delivery. It's normal as long as there's no pink tinge to it.

I am 21 weeks and I get it. I got it a lot when I was pregnant with my son. What I found that helps is the Poise pantyliners. They are for urine leakage, so they are better at protecting your underwear

I am having this and my doctor says it is fine but I did tell him so you might consider letting your doctor know just in case it is a yeast infection or something.

Discharge is normal in pregnancy due to your hormone increase..However, if you notice an odor..Due contact your OB-GYN..If it's really bothering you call your OB-Gyn.

Don't worry, just wear a panty liner.
