vaginal discharge ?

[giarose]

I was just reading a snippet from a book that a friend gave me that said around this time in the pregnancy your vaginal discharge will become heavier now and will contain more cervical mucous. Now, I remember this from my previous pregnancy, but I do not notice any kind of discharge this time around.

I was wondering if anyone else is experiencing this? Does this mean my cervix is plugged tightly?? I had trouble during my first labor with the cervix not softening. I was in labor but the cervix wouldn't cooperate. I've been taking EPO daily the last 2 weeks or so. I'm actually due at the end of Mar/beginning of April and am starting to get anxious listening to how everyone is feeling different symptoms that indicate that labor may be near. Not that I'm in any way ready for labor at this point, too many things to do before baby comes!! :wink

It sounds like yes, your cervix is probably very tightly closed. It's not a bad thing, but if you're really keen to get it softened up you can try inserting an open EPO capsule vaginally, and spending extra time with your man. :shy

Hmmm, I didn't realize that. I don't remember it from last time but I've definitely got gooey, sticky stuff going on for the past week and a half-- sorry for the TMI, but it's bugging me b/c it keeps ripping hairs off, ouch!
