How long after losing your mucus plug did you go into labour?

My waters went literally 5 minutes after losing my plug! Dd eventually put in an appearance 17 hours later.

Unfortunately, after I lost mine nothing happened much happened, had to have my waters broken at hospital 2 weeks later where I was 2 cm dilated, managed to skip pessary or balloon though which was good, I hope you aren't waiting too long and get to meet your little one soon!

I was in labour about 30 hours before I lost mine with DC1 and about 40 hours with DC2

2 hours for me. Waters didn’t go for about an hour after that. ( Good luck)

For each of mine (4) went into labour a few hours after losing the plug

Slight cramps by the end of the day, proper labour the next day but it kinda kept coming out all through that time and I had streaks of blood in it so it was all coming out rather than just a bit of you get me

About 14hrs later my waters broke, no contractions though & was induced
