If green - definitely see your GP

Can you see the image, I more wanted an opinion to know if it was green or not?

It’s hard to tell as I’m sure it looks different depending on screen/light.

it looks more light brown with red tones to me. But if you are having pain and feel the discharge isn’t ’normal’ for you/has changed , I would absolutely get some medical advice.

Get checked asap, you should be able to call the maternity unit and be seen v quickly. I had that and it was a nasty infection. They saw me same day and I ended up with enough antibiotics for a horse, it was retained placenta. Better safe than sorry.
