copper smelling vaginal discharge??

izsmz101

anybody else having this problem? i have no blood in my discharge but it smells like pennies or copper to me, just wondering if this is normal or should i be worried, especially since i'm just now 31 weeks.

Yes I had this when I was PG.  Copper is the perfect way to describe it!  I had it for about two months before going into labor at 41 weeks.  I think its normal.  GL!

I just noticed this too! I plan to ask my midwife about it next week. I keep thinking I'm going to wipe and find blood.

My discharge has smelled like this for a while I told my doc and she said if you are taking prenatal vitamins the copper smell may be from the iron in the pills.  But normal.
