I am 39+1 today lost a good amount of my mucus plug yesterday and lost even more of it today.. How long after you lost your plug did you go into labor?!
I hate to keep getting myself so excited but I'm so close and very ready to meet her.
I lost it twice with DS1, never went into active labor on my own.

I heard from a L&D nurse that they don't really count that as a pre labor symptom because it can regenerate, and it doesn't necessarily mean you're going to go into labor soon. Some people never see theirs at all and go into labor. It's just one of those things where everyone is different, and there is literally no one for sure indication of labor except your water breaking. And even with that, some women never even have that happen naturally. Try not to drive yourself crazy with speculation, your baby will get here when they are ready
But to answer your question my sister lost hers and didn't go into labor for another couple of weeks.
I don't recall losing it at all with DD. With DS, I lost it at about 6am all at once and maybe an hour later I started feeling contractions that were the beginning of labor. He was born about 24 hours after I lost my mucus plug.

With my first baby I lost mine at 40 wks and when into labor immediately. So it just depends on the person. I'm 37 weeks 3 days and haven't lost mine yet.
