I lost my plug 2 weeks before I had my first and I was dilated to a 3.

Definitely don't want to discourage you either but losing your plug doesn't always happen it could mean days or still weeks like ^ she said.. But definitely still be ready since you are so far dilated already because it could happen any moment but for my losing my plug didn't mean one thing with my first & with my second & third I never even lost it. It just comes down to every body being different & every pregnancy being different as well good luck momma if you're trying to naturally induce labor you could try sex or walking or bouncing on a yoga ball I didn't have a yoga ball so I would bounce on the corner of my bed lol but ultimately what sent me into labor was sex for sure

I'm not trying to discourage you! It could very well mean your going into labor soon but a it of ladies lose it and don't go into labor a till way after

Mae k91, @izzysmommy1003 I'm already 4 cm dilated as of yesterday and I'm 38 weeks today. So mucus plug doesn't mean anything ;(

contractions can start at any moment mama! Get ready just in case 😬 when is started losing my mucus plug I started contractions then started dilating within hours

Doesn't necessarily mean labor is close. Still could mean u have days or weeks left. But it's a possibility

It's normal to lose it in pieces but unfortunately that's no indication of when exactly you'll go into labor. I've only lost my plug one time & I have 3 kids

Really? So how long do I need to be in real labor ? @michaelsmommy

that is the start of labor.
