Mucus Plug?

in 3rd Trimester
I was just released from labor and delivery a week ago for placenta issues. While I was there, I was having heavy discharge with a green tint to it. First they thought my water might have broken, but it didn't. Then they tested me for a yeast infection but it came back with a little imbalance but not bad enough to take antibiotics for. It's finally gone and I'm having normal discharge but I'm wondering if that was my mucus plug. I'm a little over 35 weeks pregnant and this is my first pregnancy so I'm new to everything. What do you experienced mommies think, do you think I lost my mucus plug?

    You will know if it's your plug. Its not just discharge. I lost mine several times with the last 2 pregnancies and it was obvious. Google pics if you are brave enough.

    They probably would have mentioned to you if you had lost your mucus plug, but it's probably just discharge. I'm a FTM also, but from what I have heard from friends/family/reading pregnancy books that you'll know if it's your mucus plug. Google if you really want some pics to compare (but people take some really gross pictures of the mucus plugs, so beware - and as a word of warning, never never never NEVER post a picture of your mucus plug on TB).

    If you're worried that you lost it early, don't be. The mucus plug can regenerate.

    Oh, you'd know if you lost your mucus plug. It's not just discharge. It's gross.

    Every women is different. ...... I'm losing mine but it's just a little at a time.... mine is just a slightly milky color and does look like snot. Other women's has tinges of color. Some comes all at once, some not at all... it definitely could be part of yours.
