It’s your plug. Normally it means labour will happen in the next two weeks but it can regrow.

hormonesorDHbeingadick · 24/09/2019 14:41

That should have said it means labour will probably happen in the next two weeks.

With my last pregnancy I was losing my mucus plug for 2 weeks!!!!!!
I was gutted as I thought I was close ... like hours not weeks lol.

I would say it's your plug. Hopefully it doesn't take too long. X

Hormones can affect your cervical mucus. Your plug should still be there if you haven’t noticed it coming out so probably doesn’t mean anything Sad so frustrating isn’t it. Mind you you still have 2 weeks before you’re even due x

With my second my mucus plug came away in bits then my waters leaked. But that all happened 4 days before I went into labour and the waters weren’t like mucus, they are thinner and more urine like

Oh, well fingers crossed it happens sooner than later for you!
I can relate as I'm pregnant with my 3rd now and I've only ever been able to "enjoy" my 2nd and that took to get to.5 months!

Roozy123 bless you! I was ok had morning sickness bad for first 4 months then fine until about month ago and got very low iron so keep feeling faint/dizzy/sick! Had to have iron transfusion last week and mayb another next week if not gone up enough! Definately harder when have other children to care for too, fingers crossed goes smoothly for you from now x

Oh I could have written that myself!!!

This pregnancy has easily been the worst sickness wise.
The first 9 weeks I could barely move and also have a 3 and 4 year old to look after.. luckily it was the worst throughout the summer holidays which I felt awful on my kids for but I also would have struggled with school runs as they both finish at different times!!
Thank you! I hope your labour comes on soon for you and everything runs smooth and baby and yourself are happy and healthy

Oh bless you! Yeah my DD is 6, so with my dizziness schools runs are a nightmare I have to sit down atleast 4 times either way (even on floor sometimes 🙈) luckily my daughter is an angel so just stands and waits bless her x
