Pink Spoting
Posted: 06-10-06 14:14pm

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.
