I'll start the mucus plug posts now

Re: I'll start the mucus plug posts now

  • Omg I have to tell y'all this. After our 20 week u/s hubby and I were talking about baby stuff, somehow we got on the mucous plug subject. He gets quiet I change the subject from labor to baby names. He says very curiously "So when do they put that in?" "When do they put what in honey? " "that plug thing?" "It's already there...... " he literally thought it was like a stopper on the sink or tub, God love him and his innocence!

    This is why men have such a strong sex drive and natural instinct to procreate. Because if it was as complicated for them as it is for us I'm pretty sure they couldn't do it lol. Can you imagine them having to have a period every month? Bahahaha

    i never lost one with my DS#1, if i did i did not notice it.  I actually googled after the warning.  Gross, but now i know what to look for.
  • Just lost mine. I'm glad for this thread because I would have been freaking out, with DD I lost it about 3 hours into labor. So this definitely would have freaked me out haha

    With DS, I totally googled when I lost mine. Water broke 3 days later at 38 weeks. 

    eta: ?   

    But Ive had people ask about the bloody show?  Is this the BS and MP the same thing?  If not whats the difference?

    @gregsgurl81304 - I believe a BS is a mP with some blood in it... So it will be have a pink hue or something? But NOT bright red bleeding, that is not good and needs medical attention immediately. If I'm wrong, please someone correct me!

    They are the same thing from what I understand.

    According to my ob, the bloody show is a sign that labor will begin within 24-48 hours. I woke up with mine with ds one morning (39 weeks) and was admitted to l&d that evening. (I woke up feeling strong menstrual like cramps, went to the bathroom and saw I was bleeding, when it didn't stop After a few hours I called the ob)

    It was different than mucus plug. Mine was just spotting- like a light period. I had already lost clumps of my mp over the previous couple of weeks.
