Is it blaringly obvious when you've had a show?

[Holden10]

35+2 with first dc and have just discovered a big thick bit of mucous in my underwear. Is this a show? Or is a show more obvious than this? There is no blood. Thanks for your help.

Don't know 2015 but I suppose it wouldn't be your waters and a bit of birth canal gunk? Maybe give your MWs a call as they may want to check you. Good luck all plugged and unplugged pregnant mothers here!

PS. nottheOP has summed mine up well, although I only had one 'bit'.

2015 , I think that sounds like it.

I had a tiny show then two days later it was like a oyster. VOM

Well not more than half an hour after id posted the question my waters went in spectacular gushing fashion.....so much for "don't expect a big puddle like you see in the movies" I had loads!! Poor DH! Now sat in the delivery suite waiting to be checked....and STILL leaking!

Cool! Best wishes with your check up... and labour when it comes! X

Best wishes 2015is :)

My Show was massive for first DC. Id say 6cm diametre and with dark blood it couldn't be mistaken. My second DC I didn't have anything ! So Im sure there are roads in the middle ... Good luck ! And good luck 2015is so exciting !x

yeah i think it has partially come away but not completely, as you describe littlefrenchmummy and how others have described, it wasnt huge or blood stained.

i spoke to a midwife today at an antenatal class and she said not to panic its very normal to have it partially come away weeks before labour.

i have been having transient period pains and back ache for a few days. can't decide whether to be concerned

loads more has come away over the weekend. now 36+1! slight cramps but no other signs of labour! frustrating cos i want my baby nooowwww
