I just don't feel "right"

29 weeks and last few days have just felt not quite right IYKWIM. I have funny feelings in my abdomen and I smell a bit down there - forever washing and changing knickers. Quite a thick white discharge but no discolouration/blood.
Baby is moving - sometimes low and hitting my vladder and sometimes higher near the ribs so that seems fine.
I am now exhausted and could sleep all the time. I am also very very bad tempered and could quite easily walk out and leave them all to it for a bit - but really can't be bothered!!

sorry for moan but no-one else to moan to!

not itchy though - could it still be thrush?

Helsi, yes, think it still could be but the mw will prob want to do a swab to rule out trichomonas...

if you've got funny feelings in abdomen/are worried (which you sound as if you are) then I'd phone the delivery suite and ask if you should wait till Tues or go in to be checked over.

if you don't feel right go and get checked out, don't leave it or wait or feel silly.
i had similar symptoms before i went into preterm labour. don't want to freak you though but if you feel something is not right then you must go in.
you could have a small infection down there causing discharge which could cause contractions or you may be dialated slightly which also causes weird discharge.

Helsi, is this your first baby? and if not have you ever had bp problems. I would contact your maternity unit today and get checked out especially if your not happy with baby's movements. Bp question cos of headache btw

if its an infection making you poorly then the will have you on antibiotics straight away. you really shouldn't be waiting till your antenatal appointment.
if you have infection, baby might be suffering from it too which could be reason for lack of movement, if this is case they will need to take drastic action now.
ok hoping everything will be ok, infections are common in pg but can be very dangerous to baby and mum so go in go in go in go in go in.

ok let us know how you go, take care
