    leukorrhea... can you have too much?

    Ok, so for the last 2-3 weeks (maybe a bit more) i have had a HUGE increase in leukorrhea I'm 99.99999% sure it's that. It doesn't gush out, I don't feel it come out, it just comes out and I'm contemplating on starting to bring another pair of underwear during the day to change into because it's getting quite soggy down there oO;

    has anyone else have/had it quite heavy before?

    Yes, lol, increased discharge is very normal. I had to wear liners, and even that wasn't enough some days

    I noticed that it definitely got heavier in the 3rd trimester but it definitely increased more in the weeks leading up to all my babies being born.

    I have taken to wearing pads every day and night because I cannot stand the feel of wet knickers, maybe try that?

    Thank goodness... I was begining to think ... well I'm not sure what I was beginning to think... on the plus side at least we know our bodies are keeping everything sterile down there

    NaeNae, Look at you go! You're full term, technically. I can't believe how far we've come, sometimes

    Teagz - I know its hard to believe really!!

    Bella - I doubt it, the secretions do tend to get heavier as you get heavier but if you are gushing out fluid then I would certainly be getting it checked by your Dr/Ob.

    FWIW - mine seems to have slowed down over the past week
