To be concerned about discharge? *picture warning*

When wiping I’ve had some very mucusey gooey looking discharge. No smell or itching just never really had discharge like this. Is it something I should be worried about?

I wouldn't be concerned about this. You get lots of weird stuff coming out of you when when pregnant! This looks pretty normal to me. X

I had this and promptly took the tissue to the dr. She looked at me like I was mad! Its normal

I had this all the time from about 2 months onwards. I assumed it was just the pregnancy at 4/5 months I started light bleeding so went to get checked and had a polyp near my cervix.They are really common in pregnancy and they were causing all the discharge. Had it removed at 5 months and the discharge stopped straight away.

It's normal and healthy and does not mean you have a polyp or any medical issue at all. I noticed changes like this when I was pregnant. There's no need to worry.

Perfectly normal

Missmonkeypenny · 16/07/2019 10:04

I’ve had this since conception - totally normal

That's pretty normal when pregnant IME

That looks absolutely fine to me

I've had this in both pregnancies.

Hi OP, had this pretty much from finding out! I agree with the other posters, unless it smells or you’re experiencing itching or soreness it’s normal.

I had a lot too when pregnant with DD. I agree with all other PP that unless it's green, there's itching or a smell to it then it's normal. I had to wear liners all of the time otherwise I'd be wet through and have to keep changing! It kept increasing during the pregnancy. Sorry if that's all TMI! I think it's your body just keeping up there nice and clean for your baby. Do keep an eye on any changes to it though. White thick (cottage cheese like discharge) can be thrush which is very common in pregnancy. If it's grey and watery with a fishy smell then it could be bacterial vaginosis which would need treating because it can lead to a risk of premature birth and a low birth weight.

If in doubt always ask your midwife! It doesn't matter how silly you think it may be.

Looks Ike perfecty healthy goo to me OP.

If it was green, itchy and smelly then you would know something wasn't right.
