Is anyone super sweaty down there?

I am around 21 weeks now, doing shopping today and was genuinely panicking my waters had leaked. Rang the local antenatal assessment and was suggested to change, pad up and monitor for an hour and go in to be checked if necessary. Been monitoring with toilet paper wads (as I didn't have maternity pads this early on!) and regular checking and luckily I think everything is okay... But seriously, was it just sweat??! Has anyone else experienced this?

I'm 21 weeks I've noticed increased discharge I normally wear a liner anyway but I noticed it feels like I've weed myself but isn't and only happens where I get this "gush" feeling once or twice a day but aslong as it's not your water and if it is discharge aslong as it's not scented or textured I wouldn't worry

Well it didn't feel like a wee which is why I went to the next panic station 😅 I have had minor discharge most days up to now but never on this scale! Maybe it is just an uptick on that or sweat. It didn't smell particularly 🤷🏻‍♀️ good to know I'm not alone!

Unfortunately pregancy sweat is common my first 2 preganaies I didn't experience this' but 3rd and now 4th i sweat alot down there i wear peroid pants if i go walk or when working and will literally see outline off were on each side im honestly dreading the warmer weather 😅

Birthing plan.

What was everyone’s experience and what did you do to recover?
My first born was born by c section and it was a really bad recovery I want a natural birth and I’m so worried about the aftercare or what to do to avoid damage down there

VBAC or Planned C-Section?

I had an emergency C-section with my first at age 39. 10 hours of labor, stalled at 8cm and his heart rate kept dropping significantly. I’m now age 40 and 30 weeks pregnant. Time to decide if I’m going to try vaginal birth or just schedule the c-section. Part of me wants the traditional experience, but the other part of me is terrified and almost feels like another c-section would be the “easy way out” lol. My doctor was so quick to just suggest scheduling the c-section, but curious to hear VBAC success stories or if the recovery from a second c-section was awful or not too bad - help!

C Section Recovery

Currently 5 weeks post partum and my scar has the tiniest opening on the left hand edge but this is going smaller day by day - I’ve had gauze on it to stop anything getting in and have noticed a really small about of brown/yellow liquid on it. Has anyone else had this? It is not hot so don’t think it is an infection but would feel better if this has happened to anyone else, I have been really careful to keep it clean and dry!
