Don’t worry about it- it is completely normal as long as its not yellow or smelly. I’m 38 weeks as well and i’ve noticed the amount of discharge has been increasing almost daily. I’ve been in prelabour for the last 3 days as well and can’t wait for labour to actually get started.
I had so much discharge yesterday i think it actually may have been part of my mucous plug coming out… who knows? All we can do is wait.
Just to double check- the discharge is thick and goes kind of crusty? If it is watery and requires you to wear a pad so as not to soak through your underwear you may have a slow amniotic leak- i doubt it but if it is watery then best to get it checked out.
Good luck with it- if you are anything like me, you are eager for all this to be over and to finally meet your little bundle of joy.
I would say you’ve got an infection, go and get it checked out
no it is normal at the end to have increased discharge. this could also be your mucus plug slowly coming out. walking and squating can help your contractions come closer together.
as long as the discharge does not stink or have a bad smell then it is nothing to worry about but bcos your 38 week ill say speak to your midwife and see
same boat as you. 38 weeks with the milky discharge but it does not soak my panties. oh and i hear you w/the contractions & pelvic pressure. oh lord.
