How long after, with your first baby, losing both your mucous plug and bloody show did you start having contractions or go into active labor?? I lost a big mucous plug Sunday, been in and out of labor for a week, and then lost two more mucous plugs today the very last one had bloody show in it. Trying to figure out a guesstimate of when I'll go into labor
Everybody is different. My last pregnancy when I was 32 weeks, I lost my mucus plug, was dilated to a 3/4 & 90% effaced but my water didn't break & I didn't go into labor until 38 weeks :)
I was having contractions, and my mucus plug didn't fall out till after I got to the hospital to pee in a cup lol. Then my water broke. They say your mucus plug can fall out and grow back but seeing as though you're that far along. Could be any day now!
I was the same as you and went over 40 weeks without going into labor 😭 I was induced last week. It's different for everyone
Oh to add because I forgot, my membranes have been stripped, I'm dilated to 1 and I'm 65% effaced.
I'm hoping this happens soon! I need this girl to get out!!
