I was told it's normal as long as there's no smell and you're not itchy

I complained to my doctor a few times about a white discharge and was told a white discharge is normal as long as not smelly or itchy .

If it smells it could just be like a yeast infection or bacterial infection, they are VERY common in pregnancy because hormones are all over the place. Just call your doc or go in and tell them. They will probably swab you, test it (takes like 4 minutes tops in office) and write you a script for antibiotics.

I'm 31 weeks and get discharge almost every day, my doctor said its completely normal. As you get further along you might think its your mucus plug and its kinda gross but my doctor said that youll be able to tell cause it looks like someone blew their nose and its like snotty.
