38+5, pink... stuff coming out? And shooting pains in legs? Sorry, TMI but just want some quick advice.

So I have been having slightly stringy colourless/yellowy discharge for the last couple of weeks. Then, for a change, this morning there was LOADS of pink-tinged stuff. Consistency a bit like snot. This is just the mucus plug, right? Waters would actually be, well, more like water... right?! Also spent the evening in a rather amorous state with DP trying to get things moving so could that have dislodged... something?! Sorry, I sound like such a tool, but it's my first and I just want to make sure things are as they should be!

Last night I had a lot of pelvic pain and today I've got shooting pains down my legs which is unusual. Anyone know if this is a sign of early labour? Have the usual braxton hicks. Nothing much more painful than usual. The braxton hicks are frequent but they have been getting moreso over the last week or so.

Sounds like you've lost the mucous plug and I would guess the pelvic pain and shooting pains could be a sign baby has dropped lower into your pelvis and pressing on nerves.

Good luck!

Ah thank you doggytreats. :)

I don't know what it is about this stage of pregnancy but having spent most of it relatively chilled out I am suddenly inexplicably anxious about everything from physical symptoms to the state of the kitchen!
