Just came from 39 week appointment. Everything looks good, dr did a cervical check to check for dialation and came home. Just went to bathroom and was bleeding and a chunk was in toilet. Called my dr and she said it was from exam and was probably the bloody show and it was normal. She told me since I sounded nervous to head over to labor and delivery to be monitored and reassured. Has anyone else bleed or lost their mucus plug after an exam??
Re: Just came from doctor... Now bleeding
But if it's like a mid/heavy period bleeding with red blood I would have it checked out.
Or maybe your plug got loose.
I lost my mucus plug at 38-1/2 weeks (no blood, just a lot of mucusy discharge at once), and my water broke that night.

Thanks Ladies!!!
Reassured by your posts and Doctor.
Just a little dull brown spotting now but nothing like when I first came back from Doctor... it just caught me off guard and I just feel like I am a nervous wreck these last few weeks.... Thanks again for all of your help!
I'm now 39w 4d and lost bits of the plug last evening and the rest I believe is out today. Been severely cramping since..... Could mean something.. Could mean nothing
