vaginal discharge *picture*

[Starsandthemoonx]

sorry this may be tmi, but I don't know who else too ask. I'm 32 weeks pregnant and I don't have a vaginal infection as was at my consultant yesterday however I have had really thick jelly like light greenish discharge today only was I can describe it is looks like snot has anyone else had this and what does it mean?

Could that be the mucus plug? I’d make an urgent appointment if I were you just to be on the safe side

Yeah that looks like mucus plug. I'd call and get some advice. They probably won't do much though just say call back if having pains etc.

I started losing my plug at 39 wks so a lot further than u but I was induced at 41 wks so I don't think it always means anything is happening soon but I'd still be concerned if ur only 32wks.

As far as I was aware it's perfectly normal to lose bits of mucus plug during pregnancy and it's no big deal as it replenishes itself. I've had this a couple of times during this pregnancy. If it was blood tinged I'd be concerned that it was a bloody show and could indicate that the cervix was dilating but otherwise I wouldn't be at all concerned!

It can be normal for women to lose parts of the mucus plug throughout the third trimester, it's not always the case that it means labour is imminent. Saying this, in my case I only lost mine at the onset of labour (both times) and haven't lost any whatsoever yet this time (37 weeks pregnant)

I would get checked over because you never know and every pregnancy is different.

Try not to worry, on its own without any accompanying symptoms like pains or a bloody show it's largely unlikely to be a cause of concern.
