Baby Girl Issues
I am at a loss since this is my first daughter (incidentally the first girl in my family since me). Today when changing her diaper I noticed some vaginal discharge; very minimal amount but still discharge. It was cloudy white and the consistency of mucus. Is this normal or something I should be worried about?

I just called my friend to double-check. She's a nurse and has had three girls. She said that some discharge in infant girls is common. If you are concerned, just call your pediatrician

Hi C.,
I think this is absolutely normal. My daughter, now 4, has vaginal discharge and occassionaly even gets yeast infections. I treat them externally with miconizole (yeast infection medicine). I would have the first one diagnosed by a Dr., but she is a girl with all the "girl" stuff that goes with it. Good Luck...Girls are great!

Seen that lots of times - changed lots of diapers. No problem with those gals, but do follow your intuition if it seems really weird to you, get it checked out!
