Hi,

TMI but I’m 36 weeks today and over the past few days have been getting lots of discharge like the below pic. Is this something I should be worried about or normal at this stage?

I started getting this at 34 weeks and my waters broke at 35+5 and had an emergency section

It looks like your mucous plug.

Probably mucous plug. It is normal to lose little bits in the few days/weeks before labour, I did for a could days before having DD2.
With you only being 36 weeks though it wouldn’t hurt to call your midwife/maternity unit in case they want to check you out in case you go in to labour a little early.
