Is this my mucus plug? (TMI picture included)

Hi guys,
i know this is probably tmi, but i have no one to talk too that can help me or even understands pregnancy.

im currently 39 + 4 days and i just wiped and i had this discharge - is it part of my mucus plug?

it has been hard not having anyone to talk too especially so late in pregnancy, I haven’t had anyone symptoms of labour and I don’t even know what to expect 😅

thank you everyone!

Have just done a search on Google. Looks like it could be. If you are starting labour, good luck!

That does look like part of it.
It's not necessarily an indicator of immenant labour though.
Hold on in there, baby will come in their own time x

It’s part of it, there’s bloody loads of it so you won’t be wondering when the rest of it appears! I’m also 39+4 and lost mine yesterday but have had nothing else. I didn’t lose it with my first until I was actually in labour. It’s a sign that something is happening!

Yes, don't get your hopes up. It was five days from mine going until baby appeared. I was a bit cheeses off by then.

Bit of it. For both of my labours I lost mucus plug then then went into early labour about a day later. (My midwife suggested most women have the babies within days of it.)
