Just what the title says really. I’m just wondering how many weeks you all were when you lost your mucus plug and how long after you went into labour?

I’m 36 weeks and there’s no sign of the plug yet.

Lost it whilst in super early labour, was in advanced labour 9 hours later.

1st- about 10 mins before he was born.
2nd- about 1 hour before she was born.
3rd- never noticed, induction of Labour that didn't last long.

About 4 hours after my waters broke and while I was having mild contractions. I had gone into hospital to he’d checked out and popped to the loo where I noticed the mucus plug. DD was born about 14 hours later. I was 38+6.

I think everyone is just so different but the mucus plug is usually pretty close to the main event.

Plug went at 5am at 39 weeks, baby born just before 5pm!

Never saw it on first who arrived on her due date and with second it was about 48 hours before she was born 9 days early.

Full on "bloody show" about 12 hours before I went into labour at 41+1

3 babies, no plug ever seen, and no 'bloody show' ever seen
All three - no other signs (except my appetite decreased 6-12 hours before) then waters went, contractions, then out they came!

Waters broke at 4.30am, lost my plug at 5am (really obvious and bleurgh), DS born at 12.51pm same day.
