Is Clumps Of Thick White Discharge Normal During Pregnancy ?

Hi there. I am 9 weeks and 3 days pregnant, and I have noticed over the past 2 days that my discharge is just dropping out of me, especially when I use the restroom. They drop in like clumps of thick white discharge. Its not anything like a yeast infection, its just a lot of discharge, no smell, no itch, nothing. Today it turned to a thick, but stretchy and sticky discharge. Is everything okay with my baby? I know that discharge is normal during pregnancy, but I just want to make sure that THIS kind of discharge is okay. To note, I had a dr appt 2 days ago and the doc said everything looked great and it looked like a very healthy pregnancy, but I have been going through a lot of stress lately, so I don't want any rapid changes. Thanks - Katie

Hi Katie.As such, such thick white or curdy discharge is not normal. It indicates Candida infection and usually associated with itching. But you have already shown it to your dr. Don't take tension if she has assured you.You can use vaginal tablets, like Candid V6, to decrease the discharge . Take lot of fluids and take care of local hygeine.avoid sex for a week or so.
Thanks.
