Vagina after birth???

Okay this is so embarrassing and I’m going to my gyno soon at the beginning of April. My vagina never smelled bad before I gave birth like even during pregnancy it never smelled bad. I’ve always used ph balanced non fragrance soap to wash with down there because I’m super sensitive to soaps and never had any issues. Since giving birth a year ago tho my vagina smells so bad all the time. Even fresh out of the shower it still smells. It doesn’t smell fishy and I don’t have abnormal discharge or anything I do have more discharge than I did before I had a baby but I regularly change my underwear and use baby wipes everytime I go to the bathroom and the smell just never goes away. It smells more just musty. It’s embarrassing because I don’t want to have sex with my partner because of it like it makes me so self conscious. I am still breastfeeding so I’m not sure if maybe that’s why? My body Odor was so bad the first few months but isn’t anymore except my vagina. I never feel clean because of the smell and I just wonder if anyone else has a different smell now that you’ve had a baby? Again I’m going to my dr so before anyone says I need to I am I just am wondering if I’m the only one. I also drink a lot of water and regularly drink no sugar added 100% cranberry juice and pineapple juice to try and hero because I used to drink that all the time before getting pregnant to help prevent uti’s and kidney stones and it had me smelling like candy not gonna lie but it does nothing for me now.

One glass of wine being okay?

Has anyone’s else’s relatives told you that a glass of wine after a certain time in your pregnancy is okay and won’t harm your baby? Many of my relatives have told me that 4 oz of wine/beer/marg won’t hurt the baby and many of them had a glass a day or every other day while they were pregnant and their kids are fine. One of my friends who is also pregnant has started this and says she and baby are okay at every appointment she goes to. I feel so conflicted and I hate it because I know I should be able to manage a few more weeks without alcohol and I can but when people tell me “it’s okay to have x amount” I get it F it attitude. Has anyone actually ever had alcohol in their last few weeks of pregnancy and felt okay? I know as far as my relatives and friend their kids are fine but at the same time I just question if they really are…like what if in a few years they have some sort of health issue an it’s cause their mom drank…or what if I’m totally overreacting and they’re fine since like they said the baby is pretty much fully developed anyway?

Pregnancy test results

Pregnancy test

I took this pregnancy test and then a few days later I looked at it again and noticed a very faint line but then I took 3 more on different days and they all came out negative. What’s going on? I’m tripping out because I see it but my husband says he doesn’t.
