im 40+3 today and lost this earlier on. All day I’ve been having brown mucus but not as much as this. Had a sweep two days ago on Friday morning and midwife gave bishops score of 6 with my cervix being 1cm long and 1cm dialated. My cervix was mid and neither firm nor completely soft. I’ve had lower back pain and cramps that have been irregular. Since loosing this big bit of mucus I’ve had small cramps and lower back pain, could labour be near?? How soon after loosing something like this did people go into labour xx
