Hi,

I understand your concern.

Changes in vaginal odour is normal when having unprotected sex.
The yellowish to brownish discharge leaking from her vagina is your sperm coming out from her genitals 2 days after having unprotected sex. That is normal too.

Irritation of top of vagina could be due to unprotected sex, and possibly dry and tough sex.

Advise to keep a good vaginal hygiene.
If the discharge will change in odour again and color should run vaginal swab testing to rule out vaginal infection. Remember not to have sex at least 3 days before the test is done.

All the best and good luck for the baby.
