strong vaginal odor?

I am currently 10 weeks pregnant and since the 7th week I have been experiencing strong vaginal odor. Is anyone else experiencing this? There is no itchy or burning sensation and the dr cleared me for infections on my first pregnancy examination tests. I find it so annoying...constantly worried others may notice the smell and can't even go near my husband. If you're experiencing this what else are you doing besides changing liners all the time.

The odor and discharge come from your cervix so taking a shower really doesn't get rid of it lol but using wipes, as the discharge comes down , should help.

I'm also 10 weeks and I still have a vaginal discharge with a funny smell to it which I noticed when I was only 4 weeks pregnant.. But I wipe constantly and shower 2 or 3 times a day..hopefully it will go away soon

I never went to the doctor because I knew I didn't have a yeast infection but that was actually a sign I had that led me to buy a pregnancy test. I'm 13w today and the smell is gone. Everyone has their own unique smell but while I was dealing with that unpleasantness I tried to stay extra clean, and use the always moist wipes after every bathroom visit. It should get better in time!

Omg...I just saw my doctor today for this because I thought I had a bacterial infection. He did the exam and said my cervix looked good and he didn't see any bacteria/discharge. I was like ok, I must be crazy then cause I know I smelled and odor from down there. I'm not doing anything for it. Just taking a shower everyday.
