Anyone else....

Lose their mucus plug yet? I called my doctor and he said that you can lose it up to 2-3 weeks before you give birth (I'll be 35 weeks in 3 weeks) and not to worry....well I'm worrying. Any thoughts?

    Not yet.  I didn't lose mine until I had my membranes stripped with DS.  My sister lost hers around 34 weeks and delivered at 39 weeks.

    I haven't yet either but I wouldn't worry.Yay! We're getting close!

    The nurse who teaches out childbirth class was talking about this and basically said it doesn't really mean anything, it can just happen towards the end.  I'm a FTM, but she said she's seen someone lose it and deliver shortly after and seen someone lose it and not deliver for another month.

    I did a few days ago, or at least a portion of it. I'm 32 weeks also. I haven't talked to my doctor about it yet (I have an appt on Thursday) because I know it doesn't necessarily mean anything. But I'm like you; I know better, but am still worried. I've been having constant BH (again, I know totally normal and don't initiate labor), work 12h shifts as a nurse, and have other benign 3rd tri preg symptoms. All of these together make me a little nervous, though.

    And I am no help.

    I lost my mucus plug the day I had DD1. I had no idea you could lose it up to 5 weeks before.

    I have had 2 kids before and never lost it. Hope I don't this time either.

    I never lost it with DD and I haven't lost it yet. I'm not too worried about it, if it happens, it happens.

    I never lost mine the first time either, and I carried all the way up to his due date. I have NO idea what to expect this time around. I forgot mucous plugs regenerate until I just read this.
