So about 3 days ago, I lost what I think was a chunk of my mucus plug. I wiped once, had some spotting, and then wiped again and there was some of the mucus plug. That day and the next day I had cramping and braxton hicks off and on. And yesterday I didnt have any braxton hicks, but I had a little cramping, and hip/back aches, all of which got better once I laid down in bed. Now today, no cramps but my back aches a little again:/ Something to worry about? Or am I just being paranoid? I'll be 37 weeks tomorrow btw.
Thanks ladies!!!
When it falls out it also means your cervix is starting to soften and possibly dilate :)
@lajo, but i hadnt had sex for a few weeks before i lost my plug (my libido has plummeted), and they havent done a pelvic exam of any sort since the first trimester.
You def lost your mucus plug. Could be from having sex or a recent exam where they checked you.
I have basically the same story only I lost mine last night. A big ol chunk. Cramped and BH all morning long and diarrhea (sorry 5 tmi) but now nothing's really happening.
I had a uncomfertable cramping going on at 12:37 now I just got it again at 12:43 can Braxton hicks do,that ? for,the last few days I've been feeling a lot of these and they seem to get worse .
Pelvic cramps and Braxton Hicks, is that normal for being 33 weeks? I’ve had no bleeding and I don’t believe I’ve lost my mucus plug and my water hasn’t broken, trying to decide if I should go in or not. Last time I was in the hospital I was 2cm dilated and that was 3 weeks ago.
hospital?? or stay home..
21 weeks and 4 day and i had cramping off and on today but bleww it off with thinking braxton hicks well cramoing gone but now when i wipe sorry tmi but its a big red mucusy discharge that comes on the toilet paper what could this be and should i get checked??
NEED CONTRACTION ADVICE ASAP:
SO ALL DAY I HAVE BEEN HAVING MENSTRUAL LIKE CRAMPS AND BRAXTON HICKS. WELL AS THE DAY HAS GONE BY THE MENSTRUAL LIKE CRAMPS HAVE GOTTEN MORE AND MORE INTENSE. I'VE BEEN LOSING MUCUS PLUG ALL DAY. AND NO THERE ISN'T BLOOD IN IT. I AM 2CM DILATED.
BUT IS THIS NORMAL ? I'M LITERALLY IN PAIN CRYING.
I'm cramping. Could it be Braxton hicks?
@lajo, oh okay. Thanks:)
