Suggest Opinion About Yellow Mucus Discharge With Foul Smell During Pregnancy

hello ,i will be 23 weeks pregnant monday the 11 th and two weeks ago i was in the emergency room for vaginal discharge it was a slimy white substance, the doctors told me i was going to loose the baby because i have an incopetant cervix ,and i was dialated 2 inches it was way too late for a rescue cerclage because the cervix was too thin and my water would have broke . So i was put on bed rest than the next day a specialist came and told me i should go home and as soon as i bleed or my water breaks that they would then abort. They basicly said there was no hope ,i went to another hospital and same thing was said to me. It will now be two weeks wednsday i got out of the hospital and they gave me a week before my water would break ...still nothing although one thing i dont know if i should worry about i am now discharging slimy yellow mucus it has no foul smell though ....please give me an opinion i don't know what i should do i am afraid my trip to the hospital could cost me my pregnancy. and i feel my baby growing and kicking everyday... would then abort.

Hello dear,I understand your concern.In my opinion the slimy vaginal yellow discharge suggests vaginal infection.The vaginal infections,urinary tract infections and others predispose to preterm labour.So the vaginal discharge might be examined to rule out any infection.Dont worry.Its not definite that you will loose the baby.They mean that there are less chances of pregnancy continuation.So consult doctor and get examination done.Its good that fetal movements are good.
Best regards...Dr.Srilatha
