Mucous plug

mommapanda08 · January 2015

I am 31w 1d and I'm pretty sure I just lost my mucous plug. It has been about 7 years since I was pregnant and I cannot remember everything that happened with my first. I'm concerned that it's too early? Any advice?

MalVough · January 2015

Ask your doctor.

mommapanda08 · January 2015

Thought this community was to be helpful and not completely rude?!

mommapanda08 · January 2015

Thanks to those who weren't rude! First time on here and not sure if I ever want to post or comment again?

Engineer81 · January 2015

Call your doctor. And don't post again. That's my best advice for a Sunday evening.

FrecklesInside · January 2015

OP, no one is being rude. Think about your question and your activity on the board. Come on, now.

Anyhow, people gave you legitimate answers. Call your doctor to see if they are concerned. It can regenerate, so they likely won't be concerned, however, if what you describe seems like most or all of the plug...they might want to check on you. Soooooo...call your doctor.

Call. Your. Doctor.

Because when there is a chance that I may be going into pre-term labor, my main concern is how polite people are in an online forum.

It's not your mucus plug. Your baby has a cold, it probably sneezed and some leaked out through your cervix. This happened to me last week. Totally gross.

selena61307 · January 2015

Here is the problem in 31 weeks you have been here for us exactly 0 times. We have all gotten to know each other. We have laughed and cried together. So if one of the regulars came here and said oh no I think i lost my plug the reaction would be different. You just walked into an established party where everyone knows everyone. Well except you, and screamed "look at the nasty shit that just feel out of my twat". What reaction did you expect? Call your Dr, call your bff, call your partner, hit up Google. As far as this group you got advise suck it up butter cup we don't know you so we aren't going to coddle your ass.

It is rude to be condescending. If your advice is call the doctor then leave it at that. Leave out the profanity and sarcastic tone. I didn't realize that the boards were for cliques but for everyone. I've seen many "stupid" first time mom questions get better responses than this. It a supposed to be a support for everyone whether new or veteran or new to the group or not.
If it's a waste of your time then don't bother to answer. I can't imagine that someone would be so insensitive to an expectant mother in person. The veil of the internet brings out the ugly in some people.

If you walked into a room full of pregnant people who have gotten to know each other, where they have no idea who you are, and said "I think my mucus plug fell out" do you really think the response would be different? I don't. That's what you just did internet stranger.

And because I love me some Fallon:

and for all you know, may even be men posing as pregnant women, giving out shitty medical advice?

Dammit! I've been found out!

jarrard1983 · January 2015

More importantly can you all stop bumping this. Every time I see the topic misspelled so poorly it makes me cringe. It's even worse when I see its also misspelled in the post.

*edited for premature send*

abarr33021 · January 2015

Sorry these folks are complete rude, lonely and insensitive beings.
Call your doctor but know that there are friendly folks out here that care. You take care of yourself;)
The rude ones just respond quicker cause they have nothing else to do.

jarrard1983 · January 2015

Soooo close to this post going away...

ruemorgan · January 2015

confession: I just got way too excited when I realised you finally got an avi @jarrard1983‌ hahaha.

abarr33021 · January 2015

Wow.
I just joined and am active duty military.
Thought you all would be a great place to ask some questions and relate.
After serving in Iraq and Afghanistan I have to say that I'm ashamed that women act this way.
That bullying exists among future mothers.
So my apologies for just joining along with anyone else who just joined.
I'll continue on a path of health and success and hope that you and your bullying friends teach your future children to be better human beings than yourself

abarr33021 · January 2015

Like they are in this site. It's called bullying at any age.
Grown women acting like foolish high schoolers.

I'm sorry, thank you for your service but what does active duty military have to do with anything? Are we starting a pissing contest here with listing our careers before stating why we joined the site?

You've posted in ONE thread. Open your fucking eyes and take a look at any of the other threads on the first page where moms are in labor and delivery, dealing with health issues, have lost loved ones, financial struggles, stress, we've seen it all. And we are supportive- to those who contribute back. Coming in here and using us as a personal search engine without the decency to come back and even look at the replies we leave (which happens more often than not), starting a new thread a few days after not acknowledging their first one (also quite common), getting shitty when they don't hear what they want, etc is not being supportive.

We're all busy. We all have lives. For you to come in here and start calling names, acting ignorant and making ASSumptions, speaks volumes about you. And for fucks sake, quit abusing the term bully. Bullying is against the TOU. Feel free to report anything that violates the TOU, but remember reporting things that don't will only get yourself banned.

Thank you @janda426‌ for asking that, I was about to say something myself. I'm really not sure what exactly veteran status has to do with this.

janda426 · January 2015

I know exactly why people bring it up but I'll save that for another day

Ok....I served in Afghanistan too, what does that have to do with any of this? Do u expect special snowflake status because of it? Thanks for your service but I truly don't get why you threw that in there as your reason for being appalled by the "bullying" that isn't even going on. You say you are AD and served in war zones, Id think that would toughen you up it sure did for me. It's strange to get so upset about a bunch of strangers opinions

I, for one, hope you teach your children to not make a snap judgement of an entire person's character based on an internet forum.

And not to send them useless pm's.

I didn't get a pm. I get no love from the WKs .

She sent me 2, want one?

I want to see. Have you been a bad bad girl? Do you need a spanking. Lmao. I fucking hate WKs.

mommapanda08 · January 2015

Didn't realize I had to be part of everyone's little click to be treated like a person. Sorry for posting the question. I won't do it again. Anyone know how to delete a post?

1) clique

2) There is no way to fully delete a post and deleting a post is considered rude.

3) You asked a question better suited to your doctor.

4) The ladies of this community don't like to be treated like google, especially by someone who has not participated in the community.

Streed1 · January 2015

I totally agree!! There are rude people on here. I have posted a few times and been treated like shit. No one deserves that and we can all come on and post whenever the hell we want. I feel March moms in general, not all, have been rotten and that is why I usually read and post with April moms. They seem much more supportive and friendly!!

You literally could not be acting like a bigger piece of shit right now. Today is not the fucking day. Take your insensitive bullshit comments and stay in April.

janda426 · January 2015

I just looked at one of her very few replies and she got shitty with A15 too! Miserable poster is just miserable. Let's hope her post count stays the number it's at.

kship · January 2015

I am 31 weeks as well. I think I lost mine too. When I called the Dr they just told me to take it easy drink lots of water and if I started having contractions to lay down for a little bit to rest. They didn't seem too concerned about it.
And I agree with you. Isn't this supposed to be like a support group?

heathermennell · January 2015

Could not agree more. First time or veteran ... why are we not supporting one another???? That is precisely what this site is for. Responses should never be different for different people (first time visitor to the site or member since week 4).

We told her to talk to her doctor. I'm an Internet stranger and have no idea what came out of her vagina -- and I don't want to know (unless it's a healthy baby, then yay!). If you have something better to offer other than "Call your doctor," please go ahead.

This has nothing to do with her never being a part of the community. It has everything to do with her asking a question this Internet forum is not qualified to answer.

Engineer81 · January 2015

Several people directed the OP to contact her doctor. You know a person who can provide actual medical advice. How is that not "supportive"? What else do you expect?

And when you have been on the board for almost 8 months getting to know people you develop relationships with them. A random person asking what is frankly a stupid question is not going to get the same care and attention as someone who has taken the time to get to know people and been supportive of others.

And lastly, it is offensive as fuck to say we are not supportive. If you knew one thing about this board and the people on it, you would know someone just suffered a late term loss and that is devastating. And the troops have rallied.

So comparing that situation to a mucus plug of some random person who isn't smart enough to call their doctor, google or read an actual book on pregnancy, yeah we just don't give a fuck. Kind of like we don't give a fuck about your opinion.

Where the FUCK is your support for anyone else been, namely one poster who really needs it right now? I don't even recognize you. You've contributed nothing to this board. So STFU about your expectations from us, we're too busy dealing with real situations.

Fuck these WKs right now, seriously. The fact that they choose this moment shows how little they care about this community or choose to be involved, yet expect the world from the rest of us. Fuck right off

Skrittens · January 2015

This board is amazing with the support when it is needed. I was in L&D for 2 days in a row and the outpouring of care was incredible.

But you know what - when I thought I had an issue, I CALLED MY DOCTOR and googled my symptoms. I didn't ask anyone here what they thought I should do. These ladies are amazing, but are not Doctors.

The OP is irresponsible for 2 reasons - one - not asking the appropriate medical professionals, and two - causing others to have concern without understanding what the issue is.

mandi195 · January 2015

late to the party, but I have a sudden urge to tell multiple people to eat a bag of dicks... anyone want to guess who?
Eff these WK's and their bullshit.
