tmi.. help!

I'm 29 weeks, thought I was getting an infection, but UA showed no signs. I have irritation, same discharge amount as usual, no ordor. But I was wondering if the excess discharge from being pregnant could cause irritation... am I the only one?

NatureLovers

It could. Are you using panty liners?

tstevenson0118

Yes, i have to or I'd feel as if i wet my pants through out the day.

NatureLovers

What brand? If you use Always, they've been known to cause irritation. You may want to start changing them more frequently too.

I use carefree acti-fresh. How Often Do U Say I Should Chang them?

Every time you go to the bathroom.

I personally change them every 2 hours or so, but I know others may change them more or less frequently than I do. I use the generic brand Equate, and I have a huuge pack of like.. jeez, I dunno, 100 ish? I don't know, it's huge. It should last me through the rest of this pregnancy, and maybe most of the next, whenever that happens

NatureLovers

And I'd switch to a basic brand without acti-fresh. Those chemicals on the dry weave could be what's irritating you.

Firefly.. obviously I change them every time I use the bathroom. I thought maybe it might need to be more frequent. To the other comments, I appreciate your assistance. I will definitely take the advice

Thank you!!!!

If you sort the reviews for these liners starting with the lowest rating, you will see that they have caused irritation/issues with lots of other women. Try switching liners!

I know this might sound totally weird but what helped me a lot was after taking a shower I'd get dressed but without putting my pants on I'd lay on my bed and let a fan blow on me until I felt completely dry on my legs and vagina. I'd have undies and a liner plus my bra shirt etc but Idk it helped me and I feel like I don't have as much discharge anymore.
