How Much Nipple Discharge Pregnancy
Nipple discharge is a common occurrence during pregnancy. It is caused by the increased production of estrogen and progesterone, which cause the milk ducts to enlarge and produce more discharge. The discharge may be clear, cloudy, or yellowish. It is normal and does not pose a risk to the pregnancy.
Some women experience a lot of nipple discharge during pregnancy, while others have very little. If the discharge is accompanied by itching, redness, or soreness, or if it is thick and green or brown, it may be a sign of infection and you should see your doctor.
If you are experiencing a lot of nipple discharge, you may want to wear a bra with a pad to absorb the discharge. You can also try to keep your nipples clean and dry by washing them with soap and water.
Discharge Pregnancy Symptoms
If you are pregnant, there is a good chance you will experience discharge at some point. Discharge is simply a fluid that is secreted by the body to keep the vagina clean and healthy. There are many different types of discharge, some are normal and some may be a sign of a problem.
The most common type of discharge during pregnancy is thick and white. This is called leukorrhea and is caused by an increase in the amount of estrogen in your body. Leukorrhea is normal and is nothing to worry about.
Other types of discharge may be a sign of a problem. If you experience any of the following symptoms, contact your healthcare provider:
-A change in the color of your discharge
-A discharge that smells bad
-A discharge that is accompanied by itching, burning, or pain
-A discharge that is thick and cottage cheese-like
-A discharge that is watery or bloody
If you experience any of these symptoms, you may have a vaginal infection. Vaginal infections can be serious and should be treated by a healthcare provider.

Implantation bleeding is usually light and may be accompanied by cramps. It occurs anywhere from 6 to 12 days after conception and usually lasts for just a day or two.
Other causes of watery discharge early in pregnancy include:
• A urinary tract infection (UTI)
• Thrush, a yeast infection caused by a fungus
• Gonorrhea or chlamydia, sexually transmitted infections (STIs)
