White discharge: What it means is that you MUST see your Obstetrician or Gynecologist as soon as possible.

Next steps: 1. If you think you might be pregnant check then check a home pregnancy test. They are cheap, reliable and available at any pharmacy. 2. It is common and normal to not have periods while breastfeeding but birth control should still be used 3. Schedule a visit to have your abnormal discharge evaluated for infections
