Been having braxton hicks for a couple days now in the evening
today my mucus plug started to go - in little bits

anyone else been there? Any timelines?

last time I lost MP in one blob in the morning and labour kicked off the next evening.
no idea what to expect this time

majorly stressed because I have a poorly toddler too.

Great, things are moving along. My top tip would be to get on an exercise ball. Rotate hips, round and backwards/forwards, start encouraging baby to move right down. Don't be stressed about toddler, they'll be absolutely fine. Try to be as relaxed as possible. Go for walks, start to mentally prepare for arrival of baby, now is the time to get in the zone 🙌🏽

How many weeks are you?

I lost my mucus plug over the space of a week, bit by gross bit.
Waters didn't break until 39+6. Started getting contractions almost immediately after my waters broke, DD was born 3 hours later.

This is what I’m worried about
initial date would say I’m 37+1. But they changed it all to 36+5 due to the very early scans!

I still have a week of work left lol hoping I can last til next weekend? 😆
