This never happened with DD but I'm assuming that's what it was (thick mucousy discharge , lots of it, eww, sorry TMI, grossChat Icon )
So now what? I'm 36 weeks, scheduled for a CS on Sept 14th . Does this mean I'll go in labor soon? I'm too scared to google Chat Icon I do know that this is the sign your cervix is starting to dialate , so should I call the dr if my contractions start or increase? What do I do?
I have an appt on Wed and of course my DH is being sent to PA that day from work , I'm afraid they are going to tell me to go to the hospital Chat Icon

I have heard some girls can lose it and it regenerates. Some can go into labor from 24 hours to a few weeks later.

You just wait. It doesn't absolutely mean labor is soon cause it can regenerate. But you could go into labor so I would not call Dr but just watch for other signs.

What the others said -- it can regenerate. Don't google. Just watch for other signs. If your water breaks, they'll have you go to the hospital. But losing your MP isn't a reason they'd make you go in.

I started losing mine on Thursday. I am now 39w5d and I'm still pregnant! I think it can mean hours but can also mean days or weeks!

google is the devil especially this far along. If you're worried call your dr but like all the PP its not always a sign you will go into labor soon.
