3rd Trimester

is this an irrational fear or actually possible?

Okay, so I wear the boy short underwear and gaucho pants to work (loose and flowy since it's 800 degrees at work)...well I'm scared that my mucus plug will fall out and my underwear won't be able to contain it and since my pants are flowy it'll just fall onto the floor while I am cutting somebodys hair. I would be forced to walk out and never go back because of the embarassment, am I pulling at strings here or is the mucus plug too big for underwear to contain for a quick minute or 2?

  • Hmm I would switch to some underwear with a little more coverage and a liner when you get further along!

  • This made me laugh so hard! haha

    Personally, I don't think my mucus plug was heavy enough to push past boyshort underwear and down my pants leg!

  • Are your underwear really loose or something?  I wear boy-short underwear all the time and  there is no way anything would fall out of them!   You could just wear a liner if you're worried about passing your mucus plug during work.

    I have no idea, but I just bought some boyshorts yesterday and I'm wearing them today!

     

    Now you've put another fear in my head for a month or so down the road, LOL!

    This. Although I haven't lost mine personally from what I have read I don't really see it as an issue, it isn't like a wine cork or anything. Sometimes people don't even know they loose theirs.

  • LOL a wine cork....i just imagine it jiggling its way out like a frikken jello jiggler...i'll have to start wearing panty liners

  • Having lost mine, I must say I would be SHOCKED if this happened, haha.

    It will probably come out in pieces, and if you get a bigger piece, it's still not BIG big, and not heavy.

    I wouldn't lose too much sleep over this. ;)

  • I don't think that is possible but SO funny.
  • I really don't think that you have anything to worry about with that.  Mine the first time came out in pieces, when I would go to the bathroom and everyone that I know has had it come out in pieces.
  • Yes I would say that could be an irrational fear!!! LOL your plug will not just shoot out!
  • I wear boy shorts and a liner and it seems to cover the area pretty well..

    This. Regardless of how loose your pants are, your underwear should cling to you. My boyshorts hug me all over and don't get loose. 

  • Oh and kudos to you for still working. Cutting hair all day is physically draining. I had to scale my hours way back when i was at 3 months.
  • I lost mine a week before my water broke and it didn't crawl down my legs.. and then my body tried to reform one, multiple times a day, for most of my 10 day hospital stay. ?I never had it "fall" out onto the bed or anything. ?I think as long as you wear a pantyliner/pad you'll be fine.
