This is going to be a long 7 months

I am so concerned with every little thing. Sorry if TMI....Everytime I go to the bathroom my underwear are discolored. Like a yellow tinge. It is totally dry but I have also been noticing a clear mucus like stuff when I wipe. I've been feeling pain in my lower stomach like where my ovaries are. Is this normal? Am I normal lol?

Re: This is going to be a long 7 months

Totally normal! When I was pregnant with Jack I think I started wearing a pantiliner some days since it is normal to have discharge. As long as there is no bleeding, no worries!

Re: This is going to be a long 7 months

I was the same way... so careful about what I ate and drank. Now with less than 8 weeks to go- I am a LOT more relaxed. And it went by so fast!!!!

I'm sure the same will happen with motherhood!

I think it's totally normal! I would love to say don't worry, but I know you will anyway I was convinced for about 4 months that everytime I went to the bathroom, I'd be bleeding, but it never happened. I think it's a natural progression. You WILL start to relax...not to say other things won't start scaring you, but hey, at least it's a change. Hang in there!

Re: This is going to be a long 7 months

the discharge is normal. the dr even had a name for the type of discharge you get when pregnant. try to relax and enjoy this special time!!!!

Thanks so much!

Re: This is going to be a long 7 months

I am the same way.

Everytime I feel ANYTHING that is not a "typical" pregnancy symptom, I freak out. That said, I also freak out if one of my symptoms is not as bad as it normally is. Like today, my reflux is not so bad, so Im a little concerned. I also am one of those who is always scared to find blood whenever I go to the bathroom.

Like a previous poster said, it does get better and I hope that happens soo for both of us

Re: This is going to be a long 7 months

All sounds normal to me

Re: This is going to be a long 7 months

Its normal. I wear pantyliners now, I have too. It gets worse as your pregnancy goes on.

Re: This is going to be a long 7 months

I read about this in the Jenny McCarthy book....it hasn't happened to me yet but I just loved the way she put it all in perspective!

Re: This is going to be a long 7 months

Thanks dogglover....It stinks worry about every little thing. I hope it does get better.

Re: This is going to be a long 7 months

See now when I read threads like this I get even more nervous because I DONT have discharge so I think maybe something is wrong with ME.
lol

Re: This is going to be a long 7 months

It's totally normal. I think once you get pg your maternal instincts kick in and you worry about every little thing. I use to say some days, oh this doesn't hurt today or how come I don't feel sick today...could something be wrong?! I think we all go through those days.
It does get better as you start to show and you see the doctor more often.
Just know that you are not alone

Re: This is going to be a long 7 months

perfectly normal! i'm having the same thing ... it's more annoying than anything ... i was nervous in the beginning but once i realized it was normal part of preg, i relaxed.
