Late pregnancy pain followed by discharge is this normal?

I am 37 weeks pregnant and for the last couple days I have been having heavy, sharp, burning pain followed by a clearish /fog discharge with very tiny white pieces in it is this normal?

Yes it sounds like you are losing pieces of your mucous plug

I was just tested for infections and everything came back normal? I just went in yesterday for a check up he looked at me and "said" that it was normal to have increase discharge but didn't do a strip or anything to see if it was fluid. He just tells me everything is ok with the way i feel? I dont feel like it is:(  Ik I only have a few weeks I just wanted to know other peoples thoughts and maybe some answers? I had a GREAT pregnancy besides rapid weight gain/loss EVERY wk all the way up to 32wks then I went into prelabor at 33-34wks they stopped it both times the last time I had problems and started hemorrhaging  (they never figured out why) I refused any other treatment. The burning is not down there it is hard to explain? When I feel heaviness and sharp pains its like the shooting pain burns? I also have very bad headache and heaviness in my chest? Doc said that around this time it is normal because of the baby's growth? :( Just dont feel right to me. Sorry so long and thanks for the feedback:D

Sounds like an infection.. I would def get a pap done at ur next appt to make sure u don't pass anything to ur child during delivery. I had vaginal strep in which ur symptons is how it felt.. If u do have strep they will have to give u a shot at delivery time so the baby don't get it..
