When does the mucus plug fall out?

I forget to talk to my doctor about this everytime! But about when does the mucus plug come out and about how soon after does labor usually start?

Re: When does the mucus plug fall out?

  • I'm gonna take a wild guess that it's towards the end of the pregnancy but can't pin point a date....

    I can't see the image so I don't see what it has to do with the question?
  • I've already lost some of mine. My OB told me unless there is blood, cramping, or contractions i don't need to call or worry about it.

  • @JoShan1719‌ maybe if we're lucky well get pictures...

    on a side note when I was pregnant with DS i read a post by someone who said she lost her plug and the only reason she knew was because she stepped in it...i will forever remember that post...

  • Annnnndddd..... it begins....

    Do you all realize just how close we are to the "Is this labor????!!!?!?!?!!!!" posts?

    Srsly.

    We've had the Braxton hicks posts, the irritable uterus/unproductive contractions posts and now we're getting the mucous plug posts.

    Next will be the false alarm posts, I'm guessing.

    We're getting there, ladies!

  • Near the end. Maybe a couple weeks before the day or a couple days. It is not really an indication of labor.

  • I'm gonna google "things you can do with your mucus plug".

    Aug 14 are a bunch of wacky bitches. I'm totally curious to know what you find.

    That's what this forum is for. All this stuff is scary for first time moms.

    Did I miss something? I don't think she meant to be insensitive. She's just stating facts. We ARE going to have false alarms... In the near future I'm sure.

    Also, I believe she is a FTM and so I don't see why she would be bashing her own situation.

    Yeah...I wasn't being a prat. I was just pointing out patterns...

    I'm a FTM and I'm actually a recipient of an irritable uterus/ unproductive contractions diagnosis. So....yeah...

    Sorry if I said something that bothered you.

    Dude, does that mean you'll be dealing with contractions that aren't actually doing anything? Cuz that shit would suck.
    That's EXACTLY what it means. And it does suck...big time!

  • Anywhere from several weeks before labor to while you are in labor. I didn't lose mine until my water broke and I had been in labor about 6 hours.

    I saw pics of them on walls, stretching between fingers like silly putty. Maybe people eat those too, that would be interesting to find out :p

    Just remember, when you lose your plug it didn't happen if you didn't take a picture.
    YES. Pics or it didn't happen!

  • I've said it before, and I'll say it again. Personal avatars would have helped this situation out. I was right there with ya, @yoginikiki!
