    TMI: No vaginal discharge

    I've had constant increased discharge this entire pregnancy, but in the last 2 or 3 days I've had perfectly clean undies all day. I am 35 weeks and 5 days.

    Is this at all normal or should I be worried?

    I should add, I have a liver condition called obstetric cholestasis and I've started taking UDCA, I suppose it could be connected.

    I guess I was wondering, if I had lost my mucus plug and not noticed (I never noticed with my first child, but my waters breaking before contractions does indicate it had gone already) would that possibly lead to a sudden decrease in discharge?

    Anyway, I'll ask my doc in a couple of days, but it's the weekend now so I was wondering if anyone had an opinion before Monday.

    No idea! Would be interested to hear what the Dr says (re the meds - I doubt it's related to losing the plug cause I think if that were happening your undies would be far from clean).
    I guess... enjoy the comfort? lol.

    from what I have read (and I will also say I am certainly not an expert so dont completely take my word for it), the discharge does come and go, and this is normal. I read that the discharge is just part of preparing your body for labour but like anything, its not going to be a constant thing....anyway hope that helps!!
