Sorry way TMI

[Oliver's mummy]

hey girls had a search on the internet and cant find anything on this, so i though i'd ask you lovley ladies

i am nearly 37 weeks and dont really feel that far along, feel more like 30 weeks 8)

but over the past few days i have noticed a steady increase in my discharge, is this a sign that baby will come soon or not and if it is how soon would you guestimate any advice appreciated x

o yes and he is not even engaged yet can this make a difference?

It is normal for your discharge to increase at this later stage so don't think it is a sign your LO is immenitaly on the way...not sure if thats good or bad news for you

I've had increased discharge over last 2/3 weeks now, I posted about it earlier in the week as wasn't sure whether it might have been waters there was so much

Think its the cervix softening ready, but you could still have a few weeks yet. I had to wear a pad at one point

many thanks girls, put my mind at rest a bit, Emmylou i wasnt sure at first if it was my waters Thank you again Emmy and cloud

I had to wear a pad too as it got bad but it is normal - or so they say!

Yeah increased discharge is completly normal at your stage and it probaly will only get worse. As for the head not being engaged yet that doesn't matter, some babies don't engage till your in labour.
