I am 6 weeks pregnant and today have a lot of white, lotiony like discharge that I notice on my panties when I go to the bathroom. Is this normal??????

"This white vaginal discharge is known as leucorrhoea and is a normal effect of pregnancy. The discharge will increase until delivery, so it is advisable to wear a sanitary pad during the last few months. Keep your genitals clean and dry and avoid tight clothing, deodorants, soaps, bubble baths and perfumes. Do not douche. If the discharge turns yellowish, greenish or very thick, notify your doctor immediately."

I have the same and I am 7 weeks and have no problems. I don't think you need to be worried. Is this your first pregnancy?

Sounds like an STD. You should see your doc ASAP.

KJ - Don't listen to LOL (how funny!) - mainly all pregnant woman have an increase in discharge during pregnancy. It doesn't sound like a STD at all..some people are just ignorant.

Yes, some people are ignorant..... like people who get their medical advice from chat forums, and those who can't sense "sarcasm" when they see it.

wow lol...pregnancy hormones getting to you? The truth of the matter is, no matter where I get my info from, common courtesy would be to either give me that info, or keep your mouth closed.

Tammee and Molly, thanks for understanding what this forum is about for some of us who are a little anxious in our first pregnancy. Good luck to both of you!

Hi KJ. Good luck with your pregnancy! It does just sound like discharge. Wait until you're sneezing or coughing and have 'leakage'! That pantyliner sure comes in handy. Baby Dust.
