Mucus plug question

Misses-C · January 2013

If yours came out while potty-ing, did you feel it? Or was it when you wiped that you realized it was out/coming out?

I never really net into true labor and I just feel like I might with this one, not sure why I feel it, so I just wonder did you feel it coming out.

Yes, it was extremely obvious. I don't know how I would have missed it.

I am currently on my 3rd child and I have never seen mine...Doesn't mean that I dont look for it everytime I go to the bathroom!!

For DS 1 yes, I went to the bathroom, felt something kinda fall out and looked in toliet and realized I had lost it. My bloody show started immediatly after and contractions kicked in as well like ten mins later. This time I dont feel like im going into labor on my own. Everything about this pregnancy has been sooo different!

just saw when I wiped. Only 2/3 pregnancies though.

If I remember correctly, I lost mine like 2 weeks before I had my baby. It felt like a heavy period day when you feel something "plop" in the toilet.

With my first, I had no idea until I wiped but it was very obvious then. I was only 36 weeks and ironically getting induced the next thing so I never knew what that meant for labor.

I lost mine today. I had globs of mucus on the tp when I wiped. I haven't felt anything else all day.

I did not lose my mucus plug until I was in labor with DS. And it was very noticeable. I thought my water broke and my nurse said "nope it was your plug" and it was when I was standing up from the bed to go to the bathroom.

With DS, it was after I wiped when I peed. There was no mistaking what it was. This time, I believe that I've started to lose bits and pieces of it, but it's not the same as it was with DS, so it may not even be my mucus plug.

Losing your mucus plug doesn't mean that you're going to go into labor, though. I still had to be induced with DS.

I lost mine today. I went to the bathroom and then when I walked into my bedroom I felt "wetness" and when I went back into the bathroom to check I had a huge glob of it in my underwear. So far no other signs of labor
