How long after bloody show did you go into labor?

I lost my mucous plug 2 weeks and 5 days ago. This morning I lost my bloody show. I know it can be weeks from the plug, but I'm not as familiar with the bloody show. How long was it for everyone else?

My bloody show was how I knew I was in labor with DD. Until that point, I thought it was just a back ache.

the books say that after bloody show labor can start within 24-48 hours. Labor started for me instantly and 56 hours later I was holding DS. It was a long 56 hours.

I really don't even know. Wednesday I think te blood was more from the internal and then the rest all looked dried and I had that fun stuff coming out from wed night until Sunday morning when she was born. If I had to pinpoint where the most came out and what actually looked mucusy(sp?) I guess saturday afternoon do like 20 hours before birth.
