Hi Ankuranand,
Thanks for writing in.
In pregnancy normal vaginal secretions increase in amount & may become a bit thicker. This is absolutely normal. If it is not associated with itching , a foul smell or bloody streaks it is normal.
If the discharge is copious & watery it may indicate ruptured membranes. In that case you need to take her to the hospital immediately.
Hope I have addressed all your concerns. If you want to discuss this further you may write back.
I will be happy to answer.
Best Regards.
