Sounds like infectio: you should be treated for bacterial vaginosis most likely. Is the odor rotten smelling?

Yeast Infection?: If you had a normal period than it is unlikely that you are pregnant.White clumpy discharge may be due to yeast infection.You can try over the counter vaginal cream or get it checked by your doctor or Gynecologist.

Yeast.: The character of the discharge suggests a yeast (Candida) infection. Although over-the-counter medications are available and effective, it's best to have a thorough Gyn examination prior to initiating treatment; sometimes there is more than one type of infection present.
