37 Weeks, Vaginal Discharge with Odor (Little TMI)?
I know this is a little TMI, I just can’t find much about it online!
I’m almost 38 weeks pregnant (37 weeks 6 days. Who’s counting?), and I’ve had pretty heavy discharge my entire pregnancy. However, just recently – in the last week or so – my discharge has started to have a distinctive odor to it that’s never been there before.
What worries me is that it’s not discharge but actually amniotic fluid that’s leaking, and that’s what I’m smelling. Some mornings I’ll wake up, and my panties will be wet, as well as the crotch of my pants. I figure this also could be incontinence, though, because I’ve had issues with *that* since the middle of my second trimester.
I’m going to the doctor’s Wed for my weekly appointment, should I mention something? Can they check if I’m leaking fluid there, or would I have to go to the hospital?
Thanks!
