What did your bloody show/mucus plug look like?

Sorry if this is tmi, but when I went to the loo earlier, I noticed that I had a couple of dots of pink on my panty liner. I wasn't sure if this was perhaps part of my show?

I have some noticeable discharge there but often do anyway do not enough to distinguish it as being a plug.

Jellyfied snot with streaks of blood. Would have filled a team cup amount.

2 kids. Never saw a plug.

3 and I never saw a plug either.

Much thicker and gloomier and huge quantities of thick pinkish blood streaked mucous.

You will know if you see it!

With DC1, I had the same as a pp - jellified snot with red streaks. It looked really mucusy (if that's a word) and went on over a course of three or four days. As well as discharge on a panty liner, there would often be a trail of it when I did a wee (now that is TMI!) so I had to be careful when wiping. There was never an actual plug of it.
I don't remember it at all with DC2

Have you seen The Blob? Like that but with blood too.

A few spots could be the start though! Good luck.

I have 3 dc and didn't have a plug, so to speak.
I did have jelly like mucous with streaks but it lasted for a while, it wasn't just one lot iyswim.

Well what I had on my panty liner wasn't quite as disgusting as some of the descriptions!! Grin

I do wonder if I'm perhaps looking for signs... Reminds me of when we were trying and I was symptom spotting Blush

I would say it looks like you've blown your nose in your knickers, snotty mucusy mess. I didn't have blood tinged show. Also mine wasn't much, same amount as usual discharge but just change in consistency and appearance

DrMcDreamysWife · 05/01/2014 20:24

Yup agree above with jelly snot. With bloody streaks. Mine appeared only a day before I went into labour.

Another here for the snot streaked with blood. I had my show at 4pm and had dc3 a few hours later.
