Can this STILL be a show, how long did yours last?

Hmmm, sorry if TMI in this post, but am very confused. Woke on Wed morning and had slightly streaky bloody mucous when went to the loo, happened a few more times that day, although not in vast amounts. Because of medical history went in to get checked out and the said all seemed fine and was start of a Show. However, it is now Sunday night(and my due date!!!) and still happening - is this normal? I kind of thought that there would be a few "blodges" of it rather than days worth! How long did your shows go on for - can't get the Queen song "The Show must go on" out of my head!!

It can come away very gradually I believe.

My first one did, I never had a show with subsequent 2. Just an increase in white discharge to white jelly. Not the clear blood streaked stuff I had first time.

How exciting!!

I am 40+9 and have been experiencing the same as you mummymellie. I had a sweep on Thursday morning and have been having a light blood streaked show ever since. I was beginning to wonder if this was normal, but it obviously is. Hopefully it is a sign that things will get going soon. Good luck.
