    Unhappy Another Discharge question

    Hi ladies was just reading the most recent thread on discharge and quite a few of you mentioned smell. Well about 30mins ago I went to the toilet as I pulled my undies down I noticed a period type smell, when I looked at my pantyliner it had a patch of yellowy discharge. When I wiped myself there was no sticky mucus or white stuff, just wetness. I know it's not wee in the liner as unfortunately I am well accustomed to this(early preg, pre pelvic floor exercises). I just dont know what it could be, or what to do. I was already in hosp last night to have a trace done as bubs didnt move all day. But as usuall decided to kick up a storm once I got ther and has continued all night and all day. So I know that heartbeat was fine and my bp was aswell.
    Has anyone had this type of discharge smell etc.


    Many thanks.

    Love

    I dont think it was semen smell, but then again I cant recollect what it smells like, just what it feels like LOL. Have had another little bit, but not so much smell. I will see how I go. Probably just an overactive imagination.

    Love

    Me too! I've got an appointment next week, I'll ask about it then. Mine is pretty much the same as has been described by all the others in this thread... so I guess it's normal.

    I'm thinking mine is normal now aswell. The smell isnt as bad anymore. I have my apptmnt next fri so I will ask then aswell. Thanks for letting me know your stories as we are approx same time and I think 30weeks is the time everything starts to get worse.

    Love

    I had this earlier in my pregnancy around 16-18 weeks, and then it went...or rather the SMELL went. I was actually more wondering if it was my SENSE OF SMELL heightened, rather than a change in bodily fluids! Since then I have still had the leukorreah (the yellow discharge), but not so much the smell. I'm also eating more, which says to me I'm not so sensitive to smell of food...therefore other smells too.

    Just something to think about! Don't stress!!

    hi helen,

    i had my ob appointment yesterday
    i questioned my doc about my discharge concern. from what i described to her she believes it sounds normal but did a swap for pathology just incase. i will get my results back next tuesday. i have also suffered from pregnancy thrush which comes and goes so that might have something to do with it. Thrush wont hurt the baby but its just bloody annoying! grrr

    Good to hear that all is normal Amber. Mine has disappeared, so that's that I guess.

    Love
