Tmi but I'll be 37 weeks pregnant with baby #2 Sunday and for the past 2 days I've been losing pieces of my mucus plug and im very uncomfortable feeling and have back pain. Just wondering if this is normal bc I didnt experience this with my first.
@motherlotus, I know losing your mucus plug generally doesn't mean anything I was just curious bc I never noticed it with my 1st.
I lost my entire mucous plug around 37-38 weeks with my first, and had my bloody show at the same time. Still didn't go into labor and was induced at 39.3. Losing a mucous plug doesn't say anything about when you'll go into labor, contractions will tell you more.
@mommabear3cubs, I know that it is generally normal but to keep losing pieces every time I use the bathroom is that normal? @lilmommy93 I am miserable, my stomach is so tight it hurts and I'm having leg and back pain. I know I'm not 40 weeks but I'm 2 days from full term and I kinda wish he would come on out lol.
at 37 weeks I was having back pain and was losing my mucus plug.. I thought that it was totally normal until I complained about it to my mom. 4 hours later I had my baby. lol
It's still exciting regardless! My midwife told me that means you're around 2-3cm dilated. Which again, doesn't matter because you could be walking around 5cm dilated for weeks and still no baby lol but it's always exciting to reach milestones like that!
