32w1d and thick white discharge(sorryTMI)

Hey guys,  I just went to the bathroom and when I looked at my undies there was this white, creamy discharge on them and then when I wiped there was like little spots of blood.  I've been getting a lot of pain lately, like I wanna go to the bathroom, but when I go nothing happens.  I just called my OB but I feel every time I call him he tells me "everything is normal".  This has never happened to me before.  Did any of you ladies get this before giving birth?  I like your responses better than my OB's, lol.  Any experiences would be helpful.

You could be starting to loose your mucus plug or it could be a blood vessel is swollen in there.  I had thick white CM a few weeks ago with light pink blood in it.  I'm 36 weeks now.  My midwife told me that its normal.  She said that the weight of the baby can put pressure on the vessels in there.... and that its normal.  Is it a little blood.... or allot.  If its allot of blood then go to the ER.  But if its just pink or a streak of blood... then I think your ok.  What kind of pain are you feeling?  After it happened to me I went to my OB and I had dilated 1cm.

Thick white discharge is very normal. Im not sure about the blood though:( I think you should ask your OB, maybe they can check you, you could be starting to dialate. Have you had an exam or intercorse recently??

Hi i've had 2 children and the only time i got pain and needed to go to the toilet alot was when i was in labour. Does it hurt when you wee as it could be a urine infection but that wouldn't explain the blood.
Can you ring and ask another doctor obviously your one isn't very helpful.
Sorry i couldn't be of more help. But i would definaltely insist on getting some help as you'd never forgive yourself if something went wrong.
