questions, i cant stop worrying

This is my second pregnancy and im worrying more then i did with my first

Im 25 weeks now and first i just want to ask what is considered normal discharge? I have days where its thin and white, i have others where its a little thicker and yellowish (sorry 4 tmi) I thought i was leaking amniotic fluid but to me i can smell pee, and it really isnt often, not even daily. But the discharge is a daily thing. Nothing in the morning but by the afternoon ill have something.

Last question, My belly button. It seems to be really tender to touch on the side. It isnt a deep pain and i dont have any stretch marks there although mys kin does seem to be more thin and shiney there. Anyone know what it could be?

Its really hard to get in to see my midwife, and i dont see her till April.

i wouldnt worry about the discharge mine can get yellowy and thickness changes each time i check, so long as its not green or looking like your plug then you should be fine

Yes I shouldn't worry about the discharge, mines already at different consistancys daily.

I wouldn't worry about the discharge either - I'm always getting something going on down there and seems to change up from very watery to thick and then back again. As long as it doesn't smell "fishy" and you don't have any discomfort or itch it should be fine. As for the belly button, I found that as my babies got bigger and started to push my belly button outwards I did have some very tender spots on and around my belly button.
