Definitely see your OB asap in case there’s an infection or something like BV or something. Wanna take care of those things right away for the safety of baby.

I’m noticing light pink spotting, hopefully it’s my mucus plug. But I don’t see any thick discharge. Do I have to call my doctor and let them know? #37weeks #spotting

TMI pic of some discharge!!! but is this my mucus plug? It’s pretty long and thick. Wouldn’t surprise me specially with all that’s going on with me right now.

Yes it looks like your mucus plug. You can lose it up to 6 weeks before birth

Yeah I was told you can lose it and it not even mean labor is anywhere near. I just am so confused cause all yesterday and still this morning I have been having super painful pelvic pressure cramps and tightening of my stomach and horrible back pain. And my nurse said my cervix seems like it’s starting to do it’s thing. So I’m just so confused like if I’m in labor or what. Cause this is what it felt like with my other two. And doctors kept sending me home with my other two until I was like moments from pushing the baby out. So I’m just scared and nervous.

I’m 36 weeks and have a constant white discharge. It has no smell and isn’t too thick but I constantly see in in my undies. Do you all have this? I don’t think it’s yeast but I just can’t remember if I had it with my other kids.

Yea it’s normal. I asked my ob about it even, I had some thick globs about a month ago so I went to labor and delivery and they said it wasn’t my mucus plug that the further along you get the more discharge you have.

It’s Vernix Caseosa. It’s what the baby is already covered in when it’s delivered 😊 totally normal.

Why does my discharge have like a sweet oatmeal smell to it ? I'm 36 weeks pregnant

If it's mucusy color I'd suggest to rush to the hospital, that happened to me early labor at 35 weeks 2 days shy of 36 weeks. But I don't remember the smell. But I know the discharge was my water had broken a week prior and I didn't even know. I was a centimeter n a half dilated. Hope all is well. God bless you 🙏🏼

thank you and what do you mean by a mucusy color

Once your water breaks, you'll notice a continuous drip of clear or pale yellow and odorless or sweet-smelling amniotic fluid that won't let up until your baby is born. So maybe that's what sweet you are smelling.
