Re: bloody show v. mucous plug
Stupid question but what does the mucous plug look like? Will it just look like EWCM or is it a different color and texture? I feel like I'm not even going to realize when I lose mine. Lol can you tell that I'm a FTM?

Nope, definitely not the same thing. You can lose your mucus plug (and it can regenerate) or you can have a bloody show or you can have both together. But they are not the same thing.

Could be, but for me the bloody show meant blood everywhere, not just a little, and it didn't seem to be mixed with much mucus. I don't remember losing my mucus plug, although the last few days before I went into labor I did notice I had more discharge, so maybe I lost it gradually, I have no idea if that's possible.

Re: bloody show v. mucous plug
Mine was different. I woke up in the middle of the night in labor w/ bloody show (means cervix was dilating and rupturing small vessels). I also lost a lot of mucous that day too that was probably my mucous plug.

Re: bloody show v. mucous plug
I just got all this paperwork from my OB about how they are different, and explaining both. In my first pregnancy, I had a bloody show, but didn't lose my mucus plug then.
