    Tightenings and discharge

    Here I am again with another question - Sorry!!!

    I have beem getting tightenings everyday for weeks now. Some are painful and some don't bother me. Though what I have noticed, especially in the last two days, is that when I have one i have alot of discharge. Is anyone else getting this????

    I see my midwive on the 10th April, so will be asking then, but just wanted to check if anyone else is getting it.

    Oh its not thrush, it aint in any degree itchy, and i know what that is like!!!!

    Any advise will be taken on board.

    I don't know, I'm not a doctor... But I do know I'm 39 weeks and that sounds like me for the past week or so. I mean, don't freak out, could be normal, but maybe give your mw a ring?

    I was getting quite bad cramping round the 23-28 week mark... lots of like stich type cramps, tightening like someone was squeezing my middle section...

    Also increase amounts of CM are normal was told as long as the smell isnt too overpowering and the colour doesnt change that it was normal...

    Could be BH and these practice contractions mite be the cause of the release of the discharge...

    If you are at all concerned a quick call to the MW or even see your GP... Best to get these concerns check i say...

    Good luck
