TMI - Discharge at 20 weeks

kep0623 · September 2011

I've been noticing an increase in the amount of mucus like discharge that I've been having. This morning I was shocked at how much there was when I wiped. It's mainly clear/white/very light yellow but it has me super freaked out. I have an OB appt on Thursday and I plan on bringing it up then. Hoping to hear though that this is common around the halfway point? I'm so paranoid about it being my mucus plug breaking up and coming out. Hopefully I'll get some reassurance on Thursday from my Dr - but until then, is anyone here experiencing something similar?

totally normal... i have the same thing going on and still freak out every so often because there is so much... but i have been reassured many times that it is normal. just invest in some pantie liners... they'll save your underwear lol.

If you have a chance to read Belly Laughs she does a whole chapter on the "snail trail" and all it's glory! She says she had to use a pad starting in the second tri. I wouldn't worry at all. Mucous plug is bloody too (at least it was for me with DS)

Totally normal! Last week I had this massive gob of EWCM come out of me! And I actually thought "If I wasn't already pregnant, I'd be jumping DH now!"
