To ask about when you lost your mucus plug...

I am 39 weeks and I think I might have lost my mucus plus plug today, although I am not sure. It wasn’t a “bloody show” but rather a lot of very creamy and stretchy discharge when I wiped, similar to the fertile mucus you get pre ovulation, just a bit more saturated in color (sorry tmi).
I don’t have other symptoms other than an increased pressure on my bladder and sense of heaviness on my pelvis.
When did you lose your MP? How did it look like? How long after that did labour start?

I lost mine at 39+1. It was like jelly, clear in colour, slightly blood streaked and unmistakeably the plug. DS arrived 11 or so hours later, at 39+2.

Best of luck, hope things get going soon for you.

My mp came out the day before labour started. It was, sorry, thick, chunky and bloodstreaked. Every time I went to the loo more came out.

Congratulations and best wishes for you and your baby💐

Mine looked like snot/phlegm. In big clunks if it - it was unmistakable.
My 39+6 sweep started to break my plug up - I didnt have him until 40+7.
