Hey girls, I have a question about pregnancy discharge… I went into hospital to have swabs done as my discharge has been very heavy and sometimes a bit yellow and clumpy… all of my swab results came back negative…🤷🏼‍♀️

Sometimes it’s an off white colour and other times it’s very yellow and looks thick…but not sure if it’s just drying yellow on the pad… Maternity triage have said it could be normal for me in pregnancy but it also stings a little during intercourse which she also said could be pregnancy related… my GP won’t help me either as my tests are normal… I’m just a bit worried.. has anyone else had horrible symptoms like this?? I’m coming up to 26 weeks. My discharge used to be quite runny/white and milky looking but sometimes it’s so thick!🤢

Oh really?? You have the same issue?? It’s so worrying I just feel dirty! And sexual intercourse is a big fat NO lol

Exactly the same, you literally wrote my body for me! I do try to have sex (farrrrrrrrr less than ever before!) but it’s not the nicest, some days are better than others. I did ask my midwife the other day as it seems to be getting heavier (28+6)

Ive had this, apparently using pregnacare supplements can cause the colour change

Yea I’ve heard this too… I started with pregnacare but I’ve been using bassets gummies supplements so I’m not sure what’s causing it! So annoying

I had heavy discharge throughout my first pregnancy and this one - one of the many joys of pregnancy 😅

I have this. I never had anything like this with my first pregnancy. This pregnancy is completely different. I have a lot of sometimes creamy, sometimes watery discharge! All my undies are always covered by the end of the day. I think it’s just something that happens to different people in their pregnancy. Mine never smells, in fact it smells clean and like mash potatoes (sorry).

I think it’s very normal, mine can be a bit like that. It sounds grim but think of it as similar to the mucus in your nose - it’s not always 100% the same. If you’ve been tested and are clear, then it’s hormonal and what’s normal for you :)

Mine is also like this all the time now. A lot of discharge and quiet yellow (almost like a glow stick yellow) 🤣

I’m literally the same. In think it’s normal to have a lot of discharge during pregnancy. Most of my friends families have also said they’ve had this when they were pregnant 🤰🙈

I’m 29weeks now, I had the exact same but wasn’t a worry untill my last midwife appointment 2-3 weeks ago mentioned there maybe protein in my wee but didn’t do anything about it heard nothing about this but recently down there became sore so I had a doctors appointment now i have thrush.. so just be aware

I am exactly the same! Talked to my midwife and she wasn’t concerned. So just guess it’s just my new normal for now. 🤷🏻‍♀️
