What on earth is this?! 41 weeks (photo sorry)

[surreygirl1987]

Sorry for the tmi photo but freaking out slightly and would love an opinion on what this is. I'm supposed to be induced on Friday as am currently just over 41 weeks along but went to the bathroom just now and have THIS on my pad! When I wiped there was a little mucus but not much so I don't know if this is the start of my show or not? I thought it was supposed to be red or yellow/clear though? Why is this a weird brown colour (and not that mucusy)?? Has anyone come across this themselves? Am reluctant to waste triage's time with stupid questions but just want to know if this is normal...!!

Happiness is a live birth thread on my watch list!

Good luck exciting 😁

Ooh, exciting!

Good luck hope everything goes smoothly and you meet your baby soon

Very exciting!!! Good luck OP! This is totally making me want to have a second baby 😂😂

Call DH home now, if you haven’t already! If there’s one time in your life you can demand he comes running to your side to be there for your every beck and call, it’s now! Good luck!

Oh how exciting! Can’t wait to hear when the little one arrives

Ooohhhhh.... wonder how OP is!

How are you getting on?

I really hope the baby is here by now!

Watching eagerly for birth announcement!

Eeeeee exciting!

Eeekkkk!
Anybody else waiting in anticipation for the birth announcement!

Yes me! 😊

Love a live birth thread!

Shamelessly place marking for baby news- Good luck OP! XX

I keep checking in, in between work jobs for news! Hope all is going really well for you OP!

I think alot of us know that she might be a tad busy right now 😂😂 when I was having contractions I could barely concentrate on who was in the room, let alone updating MN 😂😂 Hope it's going well OP!! YAY!

Defo to busy to post! Don’t think I looked at my phone for a week lol 😂

Very exciting!! I am shamelessly place marking

Hope all is going well OP!!! X

Haha! I love mumsnet!! Baby is here. A whopper at 9lbs10! He arrived early this morning - avoided being induced by literally one day!! Not going to lie, the birth was tough and by the end I was begging for pain relief but way too late! The birthing pool was good though. So so tired but over the moon happy. Looking forward to hopefully going home tomorrow- post natal ward not a relaxing place! Thanks for all the encouragement and general niceness!

I mean yesterday morning of course- Thursday. This morning would be crazy seeing as it's only just after midnight!

Congrats! xx

Congratulations, OP! Enjoy all those lovely newborn cuddles.

Congratulations! xxxx
