Just went to the bathroom and when I wiped there was a bright red blood clot about the size of a quarter. I wiped again and a glob of brownish mucous came out. I'm assuming that is (part of) my mucous plug.....and no reason to call my dr....but what about the blood clot? Everything I've read makes it sound like bloody show may be tinged with pink or red....not be a full on clot? At this point I'm planning to call in a couple of hours (7 am-- unless contractions, start up, I am crampy right now)....but does this warrant a call sooner? Thanks!

Re: anyone awake? bloody show?
I don't know about the bloody show, but good luck! I hope you are at the hospital right now. I can't wait to hear your good news!
i am assuming you've called by now- my "bloody show" was not a clot, just pink/red blood. i called the OB right away, but my labor started immediately after that anyway, and i was in the hospital within 3 hours.
keep us posted!
Mine was more pink & mucousy, but labor was not super imminent either time. With e, it was a week or more, with L, it was about 36hrs later.
Since it was more of a clot, glad you called! Good luck!!
I had what seemed to me to be a lot of red bleeding (had to wear a pad) after I lost my mucus plug. Went to L&D and they sent me home. They called the bleeding bloody show.... I went into labor and DS was born 2 days later. Sending you lots of good thoughts!
I am thankful every day for my miracle after infertility.
And thrilled to be pregnant again after FET!
