Plug? (TMI warning)

Would the very thick, colourless, jelly-like substance I've been losing be my plug coming away? I'm 38+3 and I thought I'd lost some of it a few weeks ago, but that stuff was quite different.

Sounds like it. Mine looked like an oyster streaked with blood Smile

There was no blood.... Does there have to be? That's what confused me.

I don't think there has to be blood. My plug came away during labour.
How exciting! Good luck to you
