    Well, sometimes I really dislike doctors!

    I had to see a different doctor as mine is on holidays at the moment. Boy was she condecending! I told her about the two different discharges and not only was she completely uninterested in discussing it with me, but she told me and I quote "It is too early to be the plug" When I tried to press her on it and asked her what it might be, she danced around the issue and finally said that she "supposed" it might just be another cervical mucus. She didn't see it, didn't ask anything else about it...guess she must have ESP or something!

    Too early for the plug? From some of the things I have read on this site, some ladies have lost their's as early as 25 weeks. I asked if she could do an internal to see if anything is happening and she refused. Said it was too risky as it might bring on labour.

    So now I'm still not sure what this is and now feel quite upset about her dismissal. Why is it that some people in the Medical Profession seem to have absolutely no compassion? This doctor was more interested in pushing a particular brand of pregnancy multivitamin on me (this is the second time I have been forced to see her and she pushed it last time too).

    So I guess I remain in the dark and just hope that nothing is going on.

    Sorry to hear you didn't have a good appt this arv! Some docs just have no bedside manner. Grrr.
    Anyway, I'm not sure if it is just CM or a show that youre having, but I will tell you what my friend's doc said - she had a similar thing, and he said that in the last weeks it's common to have increased CM and it can even get quite watery toward the end! So either way, you're in the home stretch
    All the best for the rest of your pregnancy darl
