Hello everyone. I am 20 weeks pregnant and have a question for everyone. Yesterday i started having what I believed to be BH contractions. They did intensify as the day went on and were more than 5 per hour for awhile. I thought I noticed some watery discharge, but am not quite positive. Should I be concerned and call my OB? They have pretty much stopped now, and don't want to be overly paranoid. What do you guys think?

I would absolutely call my doctor and see if they want to check you. Being that you are only 20 weeks, BH contractions could be caused by not getting enough water, potasium, or calcium. Or you may not be having contractions at all, and it could be "growing pains" which I guarantee you will experience throughout your remaining 20 weeks. The discharge is so normal, as when you're prego, you tend to be extra juicy down there for some reason. As long as it's not stinky or bloody. I'm 40 weeks and waiting for this darn boy to come, but I've had discharge since 20 weeks. Hope you have a fabulous pregnancy, enjoy it now, because when you're 40 weeks and still waiting, it can be frustrating. :)
