Looking for insight from BTDT mommies!!! (Warning... its about mucus plug!!)
Sorry to invade and crash your boards!!! I just have a quick question.. I posted it on pregnancy but no answers!
So... I am definitely starting to lose my mucus plug.. gross... BUT.. its not like the "bloody show" that I have heard so many women and books talk about...
Here is some insight into me.. I am almost 38 weeks, and my growth sonos say the baby weighs about 8 lbs by now... and 20.7 inches long... and as of last tuesday, I was only 1 cm dilated, and have been having bad BH contractions, lots of them, but nothing consistent..
my question is... did anything like this happen to any of you ladies? am I close? Does the no "bloody show" mean the plug can regenerate and I am just full of wishful thinking hoping that she will come soon!!!
Thank you in advance for reading this far, and for any info you can give me!!!

I lost 2 mucus plugs-- the first time I thought that I would go soon. Well, it must have regenerated because that happened a week before my DD and I had Sasha 5 days late.
After the loss of another mucus plug a few days before I had her. My water broke the morning I had her-- and no contractions, so they had to augment labor with pitocin. She arrived about 16 hours after my water broke.

I lost my mucus plug without a bloody show also. 2 days later I still had no sign of DD and thought maybe I was wrong and didn't lose my mucus plug. But, then I had my weekly appt and they did an internal exam and confirmed that my mucus plug was in deed gone!
I had my DD 8 days after losing my plug. I hope your baby comes quicker! Good Luck!!

I lost my plug in dribs & drabs. I hd DS 2 weeks or so later, and had very bad BH the whole time. I did not have any blood until the night I went into actual labor and even then it was not a huge amount like I thought it would be.
I never dilated any further than where I was at my dr visit the day before, so I needed a c-section (I could not get induced b/c I had a previous c-section).

i lost my plug, and thought for sure it was time (37weeks) and i DID have a bloody show as well..my plug regenerated, and i lost another one 2 days before i had dd..and i was induced, so i have no clue if it had to do with that..

I lost my plug a week before I delivered..and it wasn't bloody either. I was BH's for 2 weeks before I delivered too..I even went to the hospital, but got sent home.
It could be hours, days or weeks before you go into labor. But I'm sending easy labor vibes your way.

Lost my mucus plug at around 11:30am and I had my DS that night at 10:26pm. It was such a small amount and just a little blood.
