Hi!
I am sorry if this is a lot of information but, I am 5 weeks 5 days and am really nervous about all the miscarriage posts. I noticed a vaginal discharge today, initially I thought it was urine but, I had just used the ladies room so couldn't have been that. When I checked it looked watery and I am afraid it might be amniotic fluid. Some sites say it's normal but, how can I tell?
My 1st doc appt isn't until 11th of Feb and I am freaking out. What should I do?
Re: Worried about discharge
Is it clear or white? If so, that sounds normal to me.
Call your doctor if you are concerned or have other problems.
I'm sure you're fine. By you thinking it was urine, I'm assuming it was thin. I had that, too... I wasn't concerned about it at all.
As far as it being amniotic fluid or a miscarriage - I'm no doctor but.....
With a miscarriage, you wouldn't be concerned about discharge. You'd have cramping and blood that gradually becomes bright red - often with clots (but not always right away).
I could be wrong, but at 5 weeks 5 days I'm not sure you would hardly notice if you had amniotic fluid leaking out. There's really not much in there I don't think. It could just be CM, which is very common and will happen through your whole pregnancy. Pantiliners will be your friend!
