Discharge...which one should you be concered about?

I've always had plenty of discharge but it was always clear. Today I found about a quarter size of white creamy discharge.

At my last dr visit they gave me a pamphlet of what to look for now that I'm in my 3rd trimester. Discharge was one of them but I don't remember what it said. It's at home and I'm at work now. Does anyone know?

White creamy is ok right???????

concerned

Don't think you should be too concerned unless it's foul smelling.

Re: Discharge...which one should you be concered about?

Creamy white is normal. Colors are not normal, typically. I just had some very light orange discharge and they told me that was fine. It's all so crazy.

I'm almost 35 weeks and I have noticed a slight increase in discharge. Most of mine is just clear, but about a week ago there was a spot of milky colored discharge. Didn't mention it to my doctor, though. I will definitely follow this post!

Discharge is totally normal...and u should expect it to increase in the 3rd trimester. I would ask ur dr about it just in case though at your next appt. She/he may want to take a culture just to make sure u dont have an infection...a lot of infections are "symptom-less" while preggo....

ETA: This happened to me and dr did a culture...turns out i had an infection and i had no clue!!! i had no symptoms other than increased discharge!
