Hi dear, I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
Pain in lower abdomen can be due to stretching of the round ligament or due to the threatened abortion.
Discharge of thick white substance is normal after intercourse in pregnancy, and is due to increased cervical and vaginal secretion in pregnancy.
I will suggest you to consult an OBGYN specialist to get properly examined, investigated including ultrasound and get appropriate treatment.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Wishing you good health.
