Im around 10 weeks and noticing more white discharge than usual. Nothing smelly or itchy, just more in quantity. Is this normal in pregnancy ya should I be worried? First time mom here.
Normal white discharge is fine, but if it is thick, yellow, or smells weird, please see your doctor immediately. I had an infection early on which caused complications, so never ignore these things.
In our family, they say it is just body heat, but modern doctors say it is a normal way to keep infections away. If it is clear and doesn't itch, don't worry. Just trust your gynac's advice on hygiene.
This is very common, but it is best to mention it to your gynecologist during your next scan. At my hospital, the nursing staff told me to watch out for any foul smell or itching. They can easily do a quick check to keep you stress-free.
I am planning to conceive soon and keep reading about this. Is it a lot of discharge or just mild? Do let me know if it changes throughout the trimesters, it helps to know!
