welcome to Healthcaremagic.com.

I have seen your query here and will assist you today for getting better insight to what's actually happening with you.


In pregnancy there is a clear vaginal discharge that is due to hormonal changes and also there is a pressure from above, inside the uterus because of the baby inside and all of this is normal. So I suggest you not to worry about this discharge because there is nothing wrong with it. If there is a gush of fluid that may be clear watery or blood tinged and there are contractions of uterus that you can feel in lower abdomen and pelvis then it will be known as the Water break and this is a sign off onset of delivery process. This happens at or near full term and is due to breakage of the covering membranes surrounding the baby.


Hope I helped answering your query well today. please Keep us remain better on doing this through your feedback.


Healthiest Regards!
