reila - 91 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) Thank everyone, I went to the ER to make sure everything was okay, the cervix was closed, they did a test to make sure it wasn't amniotic fluid. I have an appointment soon with my Obgyn for a followup to make sure everything is okay

Debra - 92 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) Amniotic fluid does NOT smell. If there is an odor, it should only be discharge. At 15 weeks, your body will start to leak more and more discharge- and some days you may even find you have to change your panty liners several times. Its due to hormones and increased maternal blood flow, but you your mucous membranes will swell and increase in size, even your labia will start to get larger. THis is all normal. If you are high risk though or experiencing cramps- i'd consult your doctor, not us. I am an RN though- but without examining you i can't say for sure what it is. BuT increased discharge at this time and for the rest of your pregnancy is VERY normal. I think Jenny McCarthy describes has a chapter on discharge in her book 'Belly laughs' called, "Niagra in my pants"

Justintime - 92 days ago Rating: 5 (1 votes) Most get a discharge at this stage of pregnancy. I think yours is fine, I had the same thing a few weeks ago and it was the begining of a yeast infection. If your worried go to the doctor, i would make an appointment, sometimes the ER isnt on top of things they need to do.

agonzales - 92 days ago Rating: 2 (1 votes) Maybe you should call the doc or go to the er. They can check and see if infact it is your amniotic fluid. Im not sure what else they can do about it but I do know about a girl who had that happen and she had to have her baby early.. really early. So I dont think the outcome is good. But its better to be safe than sorry.
