What's the difference btw mucuc plug & bloody show?

I've started to have a mucusy discharge but no blood. I should remember this from DD but I don't!

Re: What's the difference btw mucuc plug & bloody show?

  • My prenatal teacher described mucus plug as either brown or brown with some pink in it.  It may appear to have blood in it but is different from your bloody show.

    She said bloody show should come later during active labor.

  • I lost my mucus plug around 31wks. It was a clear/yellow mucus tinged with blood. 

    I didn't have my bloody show until I was in the hospital and 7cm. It was a lot of bright red blood that reminded me of my period.

    So you MP doesn't always have to be extremely dark tinged? 

  • That's right.  It can just have some pink in it or just a yellow or brown color in it.  Sounds normal to me.
