Mucus plug? - Cloth Diapers & Parenting Community

Sweetbabybows · 05-18-2011, 06:11 PM

I'm pretty sure that I just lost my mucus plug. I'd say it was about a tablespoon and it had alot of brown and pink in it so does that mean that my baby girl is on her way very soon or could it still be days/weeks? I did have my membranes stripped (sort of) on Monday. The baby's head wasn't down so dr said she couldn't really do it....but it was enough that I was walking funny for the next few hours at least. So could the blood just be from that? And she definately has come down since then. After I saw the plug I tried to check myself and I couldn't find my cervix but I definatly could feel her head!

Could still be awhile.

Maybe, maybe not. With my first 2, I don't even remember if I lost it. This time, I kept losing bits and pieces for a week and a half. Wish you luck!

I lost it 3 wks before my son was born, lost it while being induced with both my daughters and now I am 32 wks pregnant and loosing little pieces of it.

I lost mine 2 days before I had my dd.

I lost mine four weeks before my older son was born.

Well I hope that it's not going to be weeks since I'm still pregnant!! I'd rather not go into labor over the weekend esp since my mom will be out of town tomorrow. But I hope that she decides to come on her own during the week next week.

The mucus plug can grow back. So labor could be days or weeks away. I started to lose mine 3 weeks before my son was born at 41 weeks. Good luck! I hope they decide to come out soon!
