White (like milk or cloud) Discharge

[salmon_finland]

Hi I have had white (like milk or cloud) discharge since the beginning of pregnancy. Is it normal?

Yes some ladies do get it. Be careful it doesn't turn in to thrush. I had it terrible with my 2nd. Dont know what you would do to prevent it though.

Is there any medication or can GP do anything? I am confused I read it is normal in the websites.

It's normal,i am almost 40 weeks pregnant and I had it from day one.if it gets itchy or smelly go to your Gp for trush treatment as ph of the vagina is bery delicate..

its normal. im 27 weeks and ive still got it. i had an internal examination 2 weeks ago and last week the midwife rung me to say that i had slight thrush sign show up on the swab. but shes not treating it as ive tried pessaries and cream and its still there xx

i've had a yellowish discharge from day 1, had swabs took every 6wks n everythings been normal apart from at the beginnin as i kept gettin thrush due to antibiotics. Its normal to get an increase in discharge durin pregnancy as your hormones play a huge part in the pH levels of your body. If it starts to smell or if u get any pains in your lower abdomen then c your gp or midwife to have swabs taken. It cud b nothin but it cud b thrush which needs treatin as it can cause bleedin and if u still have it near the end of your pregnancy then baby cud get it orally. Or it cud b bacterial vaginosis (BV) which needs treatin with antibiotics. Any infection or virus can b harmful to the baby, take it from me, my daughter was stillborn at 24wks due to toxoplasmosis and my son was stillborn at 24wks due to chlamydia and now i'm 33wks n have parvovirus, luckily upto now everything has been ok but i have scans every 4wks n tests every 2wks n baby needs tests wen he/she arrives. Its better to b safe than sorry. Hope alls well and good luck x x
