I came online to post this but other posts
distracted me lol! Anyways both the times
I was in the bathroom and wiped myself
today there has been very light pink on
the toilet paper. But im not having any
cramping or feeling any contractions or
nothing. When I was having contractions
and had to go to the hospital there was no
pink spotting or bleeding or nothing.
My mom said that I might be going to lose
my mucus plug soon. How long after you
lose your mucus plug do you go into
labor?
My obgyn said if I go into labor after 38
weeks she wont try to stop it this time
and if im not dilating like I did the
first time I can get the meds that make
you dilate. I will be 38 weeks in a
couple days so im getting excitied.

Woo congrats ash! I also think you are
about to lose your mucous plug. I believe
it's a day or two, to about 4 weeks that
you can go into labor after you lose it
(mucous plug) in my case, I woke up about
4am went to the bathroom and saw I was
losing it, so then I went back to bed, and
got up at 5am to get ready to go to the
hospital (i was due to be induced that
day) and as I was getting ready I was
having a few minor contractions. I was
sooooo calm once I went into the hospital,
it was so weird...Complete opposite of
what I thought I would be. Good luck and
keep us updated!

I actually lost my mucous plug about 2
months before I had cam, spotting was
normal they told me mucous plug actually
passes of like snot except it
whitish-yellow and comes out somewhat like
a blob or part by part.
I spotted everytime I had sex or if I had
an internal exam I would spot for a few
days after I even spotted for no reason
with bopth of them after 5 mths
I lost my mucus plug and a week later had
brayden.
If its a lot of blood, go to the hospital
ash.
A mucus plug looks like clear snot, with
only a tint of blood in it, and is
clumpy.
Mine didnt come out all at once either, I
was loosing chunks of it for about 4 days.
I'm sure you know this but your mucus
plug keeps your cervix closed, and when
you start to loose it your cervix is
beginning to open up.
Its getting so close!
Be sure to get that epidural girl... Add
me to msn if you want.
My grandma always calls the mucux plug the
bloody show because spotting is normal
with it I lost mine fri and had liam
monday but everyones different. I cant
wait to see her and I hope labor goes well
and like d said epidural all the way!!
