2nd Trimester

How much discharge is normal?

Sorry if this is TMI- but I have been having a lot of discharge for the last few weeks.  It is watery and is sometimes a little yellow.  Sometimes I even need to change my underwear b/c of it.  Has anyone else had this happening?  I'm 20 weeks now.  I did ask my doctor about it but she didn't really give me any answers.  I guess I'm wondering how much discharge is normal?

TIA!!!!!

Re: How much discharge is normal?

  • Totally normal (as long as there is no odor).

    Starting at 20 weeks with my son I had to wear a liner every single day. Isn't pregnancy fun Stick out tongue

    Obviously if you're worried talk to your doctor again.

  • At my last OB appt. I was told that around this time I may notice more discharge. Everyone is different, but I know its normal. I am starting to notice a little more (Ive had none up until the last week). Now that I think about it with DS (I think more into 3rd tri) it got very watery and seemed to be a ton at times.

    My OB told me it is just our bodies getting ready for birth..kind of like our boobs leaking

  • Totally normal.. I'm 25 weeks and was told to expect it to get more abundant and thicker as I get farther along.. one of the hidden joys of pregnancy that no one tells you about!

  • I am experience what you are describing. I was told it was normal to experience an increase in discharge as well as slight color variations. I'm not sure there is an exact amount that makes it normal or not. I do know that I was told to watch for foul odors and or itching/burning. Those symptoms are usually what indicates that something is not normal or right.
