Question: How long after you lost your mucous plug did you go into labour?
Total Votes: 26
Ok guys I have been losing my mucous plug for the last 24 hours and was just wondering how long after people started losing their mucous plug did they go into labour?
You should also ask if their mucous plug was clear/creamy or if it had bloody show. Mine was clear/creamy with both of my boys & it was wks before I had them & I also lost mine with this one at 32 wks & now they told me I'm in the early stages of preterm labor.. so I don't know if the bloody show means labor is sooner.
Mine with my first was almost a dark yellow brownish color and it happend after sex, so I didn't realize that's what it was until my water broke 6 hours later at 12 AM in the morning...with my second it was the same color and I was 31 weeks so my water broke right after.
I didn't know if/when I lost it with either pregnancy and didn't have any show until I was in transition and wiped after peeing! But I was 4cm for a week with #1 and 3cm for a week with #2 and I assume if you are that dialated, the plug is gone.
I'm a natural birthing, public breastfeeding, attachment parenting, co-sleeping advocating, future home-birthing, cloth-diapering, mom of 2 boys - 10/06 and 3/08. One is circumcised, one isn't, ask me why! (and don't mutilate your poor baby's penis:( ) Yes, I tandem nurse - why take away the best thing I can give my toddler just because I got knocked up again? lol
I'm an open book when it comes to my pregnancies and births. There's nothing you can ask that I won't answer.
hey all
