Could be days/weeks yet

I had my bloody show all through Friday night, waters went Saturday evening and baby born Sunday lunchtime.

I jumped in the bath and had my daughter 3 hours after losing my plug! It varies from person to person but I'd say it's usually a couple of days

I always think that with a clear mucus plug you have a much more varied span of time where you could potentially go into labour once you've lost it, but when its bloody for some reason always think that means it's a more definite sign of labour?

That is literally the most anecdotal advice ever though, sorry!

Any good news @RuthCee1997?

I did google to check and indeed having a bloody show is a bit different to just losing the mucous plug and is a more positive sign that labour will start within the next few days.

Hope you're nearly there Grin
