Hi,
I understand your concern.
Vaginal clear discharge is normal body reaction to pregnancy. It is normal except accompanied by itching/ burning in urine.
IN later month of pregnancy 8-9th month this discharge becomes more & contains more mucus. When it's accompanied by blood or mild labor pains along with down ward decent of head of baby.. it can be considered as delivery preparations have started & it may start soon.
Thanks.
