Milky white discharge

[cheffancy1]

I'm in my 37th week and I'm now experiencing white Milky discharge, odorless. Is this a sign of the mucus plug about to come out and labor is about to began soon?

I don't think that milky white discharge has much to do with your mucus plug. When your mucus plug does come out, assuming that you notice it, it will be a small ball of clear slime - similar to a clear slime bugger lol about the size of a nickle or quarter and possible tinged with a steak of blood

Thanks. And soon after I lost my mucus plug I went into labor soon after with my other two kids they both were born at 38 weeks so I'm assuming this would be the same though pregnancies are different so I may not really know but usually come yeast infection comes irritation and itching I have none of that just the discharge

It can be a sign your plug is going to come soon...however losing the plug doesn't mean labor will be soon. I went over a week after I lost mine.

Just a thought extra discharge can mean a yeast infection so maybe when you go to your weekly OB apt ask them to check.


Congrats on being so close to meeting your little one!
