Should I call the doctor? Late Update!
I'm due on 5/20 but have a scheduled c/s for 5/11. I just went to the bathroom and had some blood mixed with mucus every time I wiped (I kept checking to be sure it wasn't just once). I have to work overnight tonight and I"m the only person on in the pharmacy. I don't feel any pain/cramping or anything like that. Is it worth it to call the doc, or do you think it is just losing my mucus plug and nothing is really happening? I was at the doc on Tuesday and there was nothing going on. I'm just a bit scared that things will start happening overnight and I'll be stuck, the only one at work and won't be able to leave. WWYD?

I would call the doctor. I never spotted with DD until the night I went into labor and I had spotting only when I wiped. It can't hurt to call and just give a heads up.

Re: Should I call the doctor?
It's worth a call (sounds like a mucous plug to me too).
Losing your plug doesn't mean immediate labor so don't panic - but they may have some restrictions along with it.
Also, you are to term now! So anytime after 36 weeks is technically right on time!

Re: Should I call the doctor?
If you went to the dr. on Tues. and they did an internal, they might have just aggravated your cervix. I would wait and see what happens.

Re: Should I call the doctor? Late update!
Well, I was in labor! I called the doc and told him what was happening and that I was supposed to work that night. He told me to go to L&D to get checked out before I went to work. They said I was contracting every 4-6 minutes (although I only felt "crampy" in my back). When the nurse did a pelvic exam she said I wasn't dilated at all and then when she pulled her hand out (sorry TMI) I felt a GUSH and knew that my water broke. So they kept me there all night and my new baby girl was born via c/s at 10:23 the next morning! We got home Weds afternoon and are just trying to get adjusted to life at home now.
