That is not normal. I would consult your gynocologist, who will most likely do a pelvic exam, and swab the area for cultures. I'm not sure of your sexual practices, therefore the possibility of a STD may be present, as well as a possible yeast infection (if there is cottage cheese like drainage).

Discharge with an odor means infection. See your doc and get this checked out first thing Monday morning. Also be sure not to use soaps in the vaginal area and wear only 100% cotton underwear. You are lucky this hasn't spread to your pelvic organs or elsewhere if you have had it this long.

Ever since you gave birth? Odor is a symptom of infection. Discharge is a symptom of infection. It is not caused by a lack of hygiene, but by such things as hospital acquired bacterial infections, and hormonal imbalances.
You need see a gynecologist IMMEDIATELY at your local hospital clinic or private doctor's office for a medical diagnosis and treatment.
