discharge question (and probably TMI)

The past day or so I've noticed a lot more discharge... it feels sticky on the pad, and its the normal whitish color its always been with a creamy texture. I'm 34 weeks, is it normal to have this increase in discharge now? I keep thinking maybe I'm leaking fluid when I feel it come out, but its creamy, not watery and I am definitely not soaking through my pantyliner. Should I call the doc about this or can it wait until my appointment on monday?

Im thinking its the norm. I have been having the same thing andIm a week behind you. I go Tues to the Dr, so I will check then.

Re: discharge question (and probably TMI)

It is totally normal to have an increase in discharge as your pregnancy progresses. I have more some days than others. If you are really concerned, call your doctor, but you can probably wait till Monday to mention it.

ETA: I am 39 weeks and it has become much more in the last few weeks.

Normal.. body getting ready for birth.

Re: discharge question (and probably TMI)

I have been told that discharge increases at the end.

Mine has increased and then yesterday it actually changed from the creamy white dishcharge to a clear mucus discharge similar to what you get at O time. I plan to ask my OB about it at my next appt. I don't think there is anything wrong, just hoping it may mean progress

It's normal. I've noticed an increase over the past few weeks.

Thanks ladies! I figured it was probably some normal thing that happens towards the end. I know most twins are born at or before 36 weeks, so it is very possible I am close to the end. I'll ask about it on monday!
