So embarrassing but...

[embarrasedpreggo]

Had to name change for this as I feel so embarrassed!
I'm 28 weeks pregnant, and constantly wet/sweating down below, it smells! It's not an infection or std or anything!
Just wondered if anyone else has/had this and does it go? What can I do?!
Don't even want my partner near me.

Im thinking of getting theses. I get sore after a while with pads but this discharge keeps making me feel like I have wet myself. I am almost 14wks. I keep getting thrush as well which peaks but doesnt fully go away.

Was meant to add link. I too am changing knickers in the day.

Yep this is happening to me as well. Im 30 weeks and having to change my pants twice a day.

Doesn't get any better when you start to wee yourself as well

Wash your clothes with a antibacterial washing powder (one you would use for sports clothes) to make sure odour is eliminated from your clothes and not increasing the problem.

Thanks everyone, feel a lot better now I know I'm not the only one. I always feel paranoid at work thinking I smell! Going on the hunt today for supplies to help with this situation 😂

Out of interest, those who have this do you know what you're having? It's just I didn't have this with DD and I'm having a boy this time, I wondered if the hormones were different.

I had this (and had a DD 5 weeks ago @Oysterbabe) towards the end of my pregnancy, they didn't find any infection in me either.

I wore cotton knickers and sprayed anti perspirant around the area (like outside my knickers) but I think it was just the extra weight and hormones etc

I'd definitely not wear a scented pad, maybe get some of the thin maternity pads? They are very gentle!

Oh, and try air out when you can!

I'm having a girl too.
Yeah I'm gunna try that thank you.

I've had this throughout my pregnancy, I'm 37 weeks. I tried using pads but ended up with thrush. I now just change my underwear regularly & remind myself it's not for much longer.
