I am about 26 weeks pregnant. The whole time I have had some discharge. It has turned to a light brown color. I have been checked for the stds and just routine stuff when I first found out I was pregnant. My husband and I have only had sex once since I been pregnant so I know its nothing to do with sex or anything like that. It has a strong ammonia like odor. I don't feel like this is normal. What could be causing this? I go to the dr. next week but I kinda want a heads up before I get there. Should I be worried? I have had it the whole pregnancy it is just getting to be more of it. I wear thick pads because of it. I have not had any bleeding or cramping.
the brown could be light spotting of old blood. Have you talked with your doctor about it? Higher discharge is normal, but anything requiring thick pads is not.
Well I can't believe your doctor never asked you about it at your visits. I am 14 weeks with my fourth and each pregnancy my doc has asked me at every visit if I had a discharge. If he did ask , did you tell him? I don't think you should have to wear a thick pad,nor should it smell. I had to wear a panty liner with my third one but no pad. Maybe call your doctor today.
It sounds like you could have a mild infection. I would call your doctor and get an appt to be seen just in case you need to get on some antibiotics or anything. Good luck!
Normal for the most part. I did that w/ all 3 pregnancies. Your body is going through a lot of changes. Don't worry but tell your Dr anyway.
