Is this a show??

You'd think I'd know as this is my 3rd, but... Loads of snot like stuff but no bloody streaks or anything?! I'm 36 weeks pg.
I'm also a little worried as this baby has been transverse for most of the pg, had turned to head down at my last antenatal appointment, turned back to transverse the next day and I'm currently undecided as to which way she's facing!

sounds like one to me.

The show is the mucus plug coming away, and what you have described definitely sounds like how you would describe a mucus plug.

Give your mw a ring, tell you that you think you've had a show, tell her about the transverse thing and see what she suggests. She may want you to pop to the hospital just to see how things actually are.

Good luck, will keep an eye on birth announcements.

Do you think you could be in labour?

Does he want you to go to hosp now, or tomorrow some time when you get around to it?

Im back! Baby is oblique-ish, not transverse apparently! Baby is fine, nobody seemed really interested in the show! I'm definitely not in labour though, good job too as my last labour was only a couple of hours!
