Hey sweetness,
Discharge is COMPLETELY normal. That's just your body doing its thang. However, I know this sounds TOTALLY TOTALLY TOTALLY gross, but here it goes... you should get to know your discharge. I'm not saying you need to really examine it, but figure out what's normal for you and what isn't...
If your discharge starts to drastically change - i.e., if it starts to smell fishy or if the color is consistently off (a yellow or green), then you may have an infection. So just be aware of what's coming out of your body... otherwise, discharge is so very normal, it's unbelievable!
Good luck, sweetness!

This doesnt mean you have an STD or anything, it's your way of keeping your vagina clean and healthy. Think of it as cleaning it out. I'd be more worried if you DIDNT have discharge haha :]
