Thick green discharge should I call midwife?

I'm 37 weeks and just went to the toilet there was a thick green discharge do I need to call midwife or leave it until the morning?

Could be your mucus plug? Which is no big deal!

No harm in calling the dr if you think you could have an infection, especially if it had a smell. :)

Discharge shouldn’t be green, definitely indicates an infection so I’d give them a call and see if they can book you in from the morning at the unit

From my own experience call midwife, I had green discharge and it was baby poop

This happened with my first and my baby had pooped in the waters 😅

Without stressing, give your midwife a call and have a chat 😊

When my water broke, it was green from meconium. I'd call your midwife asap

Definitely call your midwife - sounds like it could be meconium so they will want to check baby is happy :-) you got this mama! 💪

Sounds like your mucus plug to me (you can google what it looks like!) bascially looks like a giant bogey

My mucus plug came out during labour and was green but if you are concerned call your midwife, thats what they are there for 😊

Period like cramps

Hi
I’m currently 33 weeks pregnant and I keep getting period like cramps I thought these were Brixton hicks but I’ve heard they only last 30 seconds ish as this can go on for a good time frame then go away and come back, they aren’t bad enough where I can’t do basic things they just feel like I’m about to get my period I’m jus wondering how normal this is? Baby is still very actively kicking xx

C section or natural?

I am a control freak and thinking c section is the least stressful route for me and baby… less complications during labour etc. whilst acknowledging recovering can be hard.
If it could be guaranteed no tearing or complications then I would opt for natural and kind of want to experience the feeling.
Then again could plan and go either way 😂 arghh!
Anyone else in this predicament?

Midwife check

Can someone remind me when the midwife visits you at home? Is it the day after you’re discharged? And is that the same on the weekend or do they not visit then? Thanks!
