A member asked:

At 5 weeks pregnant and having yellow mucus like discharge. is this normal or signs of miscarriage?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

It can be normal: This could be normal cervical mucous. It you are not having itching or irritation, this should be fine. However you must understand that at 5 weeks, 15-20 percent of pregnancies can end in miscarriage.
