Hiya guys, i'm 40+1 weeks today & had my first sweep yesterday about 2pm. I had some light pink blood about 3 hrs after which i know is meant to be normal (only lasted about an hour!) Today i've been having some sticky, thick, brown discharge and had a big blob in the toilet after i went for a wee (sorry if tmi) do you think this is my plug coming away or just me wishful thinking? I have had some period type cramping too but they come and go very irregular .. TIA! grin

I do hope so, i've never wanted to be in pain so much in my life .. Is it wrong that i'm actually looking forward to labour Hmm

No. It's exciting meeting your baby and most people are pretty fed up with pregnancy by the end. Nature's way of overcoming any fear of birth.....
