Mucous plug...

Fingers crossed this is going to be true for me... I need at least a few more weeks out of this kiddo!

With my first, I lost it around 36-ish weeks and gave birth at 38+2. With my second, I started losing it around 36 weeks again, and I kept losing more and more over the next few weeks...at 38 wks, I lost a huge amount all at once and I really thought I would be going into labor. But..nope! We held on for yet another 3 weeks, and continued to lose more all the while, until I was finally induced at 41+1! I only lost it 1 time with my first, though. So: birth 2 wks after with my first, and 5 wks after with my second (and by induction, at that).

Never. to my knowledge anyways. And no assistance with anything to go into labor.

I went into labor on my due date while I was thick and closed. Labor started with my water breaking - slowly trickling down my leg, due to being thick and closed.

While I'm sure it came out, I have no clue when. I had absolutely zero signs of impending labor.

I have had mucous with blood in it for as much as 3-4 weeks before baby.

I lost pieces for a couple weeks before I actually went into labor. I had bloody show the morning I went into labor but I was already having steady contractions at that point (even though they were pretty far apart). I was at a 2 for about 3 weeks before I went into labor, too.
