Hey! Hope your all well 💕 and staying safe in this storm that's hitting the UK!

Friday morning I lost a large amount of mucus plug, had lower backache and lower bellyache. I did ring assessment unit, they told me to keep an eye on the discharge and take paracetamol.

Since the bigger/thicker amount I've lost, I've been loosing a (sperm consitancy) discharge - sometimes with red/pink streaks in - everytime I go to the toilet I have to change the panty liner i have in.

Yesterday and today I've been having tightenings where I feel a lot of pressure/stretching, lower backache & lower stomachache. It isn't painful just uncomfortable.

Has this happened to anyone else? Does this mean labour is close?

I didn't have any of this with my first son as I had a sweep and had to have my waters broken!

The first picture is what I lost Friday morning, the second picture is from today but is the same as what I've been loosing since the first picture Friday. If that makes any sense 🤣.

I think you may actually in labour. Not all labour is painful. I had a friend who had a similar experience, second baby, went to the hospital to get checked and she was at 8cm.
