WAAAAAY TMI question for BTDT moms and third tri moms
ok, here it goes...
I went to the bathroom in the middle of the night (shocking!), and wiped. I had a small to med sized sticky blob (pure white in color) on my toilet paper...
I'm only 33 weeks. I don't *think* it's my mucous plug... I thought they were supposed to be more... well, snot+ brown + blood colored than snow white. I'm thinking it could have been normal secretions  that sort of dried partially inside of me and got thicker than usual (it's the right color and scent for that)
Am I going nuts? can a mucous plug smear on toilet paper be the size of a dime and snow white? 
if it could, I guess I should call my OB

I don't think there is any standard type of mucous plus as our bodies all do different things. I would definitely call your Dr-even if you do go into labor 33 weeks is safe in almost every case. But definitely call And don't forget I'm your buddy

Towards the end there tends to be an increase in, um, discharge... so yeah I think it's normal. Call your OB if you're worried but I think I kind of remember that being one of the signs that baby's getting evicted.

Re: WAAAAAY TMI question for BTDT moms and third tri moms
I'm soooo hoping it's discharge... I try to remain pragmatic at times like these... my gut says discharge. It's just it's never been partially dried out like that before...
If it isn't discharge... 33 weeks is too early for early labor signs IMO  I don't want to see stuff like that until 36 weeks, becuase I really want Scone to continue to bake until at least 37 weeks!
I left a message for the nurse at the Dr's office and I'll see what they say......
