Go to Hospital: This large amount of discharge may be normal, but, it could also be a sign that your water broke or you are dilating and this is the "show" of mucous once the cervix is dilating. Either way, 35 weeks is too early for both and you need to go to hospital to be evaluated.

Vag discharge: It may be normal, as your hormonal status changes fast during pregnancy. If there is any concern about sexually transmitted disease, that needs to be ruled out. Bloody show is pink or frank blood tinged discharge that signifies approaching labor. Occasionally urinary tract infections can present with bladder leakage mistaken for discharge.

Probably normal: Discharge increases during pregnancy due to all the increased hormones your body is producing wirh pregnancy. However, it should be checked by your doctor to be certain you are not leaking amniotic fluid or coming down with a vaginal infection as that is also common during pregnancy.
