How do you know if you are passing clots??

Question

I am always nervous about losing this baby. I worry all the time. When I get cramps and pains...I worry and constantly check to see if my discharge has changed. My question is...I read that you will pass clots. How do you know they are clots? I mean my discharge is sometimes clumpy and thick. I dont have any bleeding, but always have alot of discharge. It is white but does come out in clumps sometimes. How can you tell a difference between what is normal and what is not??

18 Weeks Pregnant!!!

Answer 1

It'll be very bloody hun, if you're not bleeding you're fine. Clumpy discharge and lots of it while pregnant is completely normal. Don't borrow stress!!! Unless you start cramping, bleeding, don't feel the baby move, or just don't "feel" right, DON'T WORRY! Or try not too, it's easier said than done. Your chances for miscarriage are very low at this point, relax, prop your feet up and enjoy your pregnancy.

**Just for added comfort, at this point if you were to miscarry your water would break and you would have contractions, I had one at 16 weeks and actually had to labor, it's a lot different once they're that big, so don't stress yourself out. :)

Answer 2

Bloody clots. Huge clots of jelly consistancy of blood.
Some of you woman are so, so lucky. I had these with every one of my regular periods 2 out of the 5 days. And no I wasn't pregnant. Just a heavy bleeder and cramper.
