Warning tmi! - Discharge - what is normal?

I am 28 weeks & have had quite a lot of discharge throughout my pregnancy & a few bouts of thrush. Have noticed every so often I get white clumps of discharge after going to the loo when wiping. Looks like soggy loo roll but have just checked & it isn't - sorry tmi! Is this just accumulation of the discharge, aren't itchy or anything & no other symptoms, although think I may be a bit dehydrated as urine is quite dark. Haven't drank that much today so off to rectify that now with a big glass of water.

dunno if it's something to worry about or not, but probably worth mentioning to midwife. Are you itchy or anything else? They will probably send off a sample and you can get it sorted if necessary.
Sorry just read not itchy... when are you seeing midwife again or could you make appointment to see nurse at your doctors, to get a sample sent away?

That's the kind of discharge you get with thrush. I had it when pregnant but had it very far up iyswim by the cervix so it wasn't itchy and was only picked up on a speculum test I had because I'd spotted slightly.

Looks like you ladies are right as last night in bed was so itchy. Looks like it's out with the canesten & yoghurt again!

might be worth a visit to doctor anyway. Last time i had recurring thrush went to doctor who prescribed something which got rid of it once and for all, thank goodness
