Well, we are learining about his is our child develpoe ment class. Yeah when you loose your mucus plug you do get a pinkish discharge. After you loose it you shouldn't have any sexual intercourse b/c it can cause an infection. I don't know when you could go into labor but I know it could be soon so good luck with everything.

It could be anywhere from a couple of days or a couple of weeks, it just means your cervix is starting to stretch and soften- it has to be soft to dilate during contractions.
Unless it was dislodged during an internal examination.
You can still have sex and baths and stuff, infection is only a risk if your waters break.
Good luck !!
