Thanks! Yeah I will ask my doctor. But I can't find anything reputable about the process or if it differs for everyone or what lol

@rese yes , it's different for everyone. Some women dont lose their plug when they dilate , but I did. But if you did lose it... you would see it when wiping , or maybe even on your panties. Mine was always on the toilet paper. After losing the mucus plug I know some women that went into labor hours later , not me.. I got induced and started losing mine weeks before induction, that's when I started my dilation also. So it's different for everyone. Losing the mucus plug can happen even before dilation starts, when it happens earlier in pregnancy, it usually regenerates itself, hope that helps.

Yeah I don't remember either. Maybe it's not as noticeable as I'm thinking it is for some people

@thawkins, lol yeah I didn't even think of labor, I was just wondering about dilating. Like not dilation to an active labor. But just 1-3cm type.

@rese, I would also be fucked if I started dilating back then. I couldn’t imagine. This pregnancy has been rocky from the start anyways.

@thawkins, yeah I'm glad that you didn't. I'm sorry to hear. Hopefully the rest goes much smoother for you!

Wow. How'd that happen? Like did they have to remove it? I'm confused

@rese, well my water broke with my first, I had a scheduled c section with my second. I’m guess when my water broke is when I lost it lol

Oh okay. I’m just like a ftm with that stuff 😂. I guess my concern is that I keep having BH and lighting crotch + pelvic pressure. So I'm concerned about dilating. But I'm trying to figure out if it's safe to say unless I see something like a mucus plug, I'm not dilating. 🤔
