Embarrassed & Worried - Green discharge :(

[Kailani]

I've read that if you have greenish discharge you should see a doctor straight away, is it that serious?

Last night DP and I dtd for the first time in like...3 months? It hurt and was uncomfortable and it kinda felt like burning/stinging down there for a while after. Anyway, this morning when I went to the toilet and I wiped there was this gross green snotty discharge on the paper (sorry tmi), quite a lot and it's made me really worried - I was thinking of even keeping it and showing the doctor I've been getting some discharge recently, but not like this. All I can say is, I'm never dtd while pregnant again!!

Any idea what it could mean and if it's normal or really serious?

Definitely sounds like an infection of sorts, definitely head in and get onto some antibiotics asap.

When I was pg with Emily I had a greenish type of discharge. I headed up to the birth suite and after examing me found that I had an extreme case of thrush. BUT, it could have been a lot worse, they were fearing that it was something nasty.
Definitely get looked at straight away.

Wow, okay I will definitely get it checked Thanks Kelly & Jodi. I hope it's just thrush then and bubs is okay

Sounds like it could be with the burning and stinging. Let us know how you go.

I had a similar thing with the green discharge and had it checked out but for me it wasnt anything serious, it was only very light green in colour. I showed my Ob and she took a swab but it was all good.
I also get a bit of a stinging/numbing sensation after dtd but i put that down to not actually dtd very often
Good luck and i hope its all cleared up soon
