Can someone help with advice please

Helloooo ladies.

So I'm almost 36 weeks. On Monday in fact! Well today I wiped and there was a small amount of blood on it and a tiny dot of mucus. I assume this os my mucus plug coming away but I'm not due my C section until the 9th of April so over 3 weeks.
What's most likely to happen now that I'm losing my mucus plug so early?

Will early labour be coming soon?

Tell me your experience

Thank you 😊 xx

I lost my muscus plug with my son when I was 37 weeks lost it that morning and my waters broke that night and had him early hours in the morning

Took about 3-4 days after I lost it to go into labor ! My daughter ended up being a month early and we went home after 2 days 🤗

This could be what’s called a “bloody show” which happens when labor is near, if I were you I’d just get my bags packed and be ready for anything, and go in if you start having consistent contractions

On the other hand it’s totally possible that you’re just spotting and your mucus plug regenerates, and you go another 3 weeks but I would be prepared just incase it’s the first

I had 1 baby at 36 weeks and 1 at 39 so I’ve been through both scenarios

This is your bloody show

Just because you have lose a small amount does not mean you will go into labor. I lost mine with both my pregnancies and it regrow both times no labor until weeks later. Your plug can regrow or regenerate so it may not be anything for you to worry about.

Looks like you are losing your mucus plug it can come in pieces. Your looks like a piece. I lost mine with my first daughter and went into labor 4 days later

Yes the plug can regrow
But a bloody show is different to that and this looks like a bloody show

I went home after 3 days with my first. But the same day with my second

Congratulations mamas as we wrap up the second trimester and start the last stretch! 26w and 4d over here. Have a good day!

Anyone else felt like this?

Hi, I’m 4 months postpartum, little one sleeps through the night and is formula fed, the last week I’ve felt extremely tired and very hungry! Just wondered if anyone else has felt this way/experienced this?

Hey what are your current symptoms?

I’m 37+5

I’m pretty mobile still but anything over a hour or 2 and I’m in discomfort

Getting up from a sitting position is hard

Some of baby’s movements now are bordering on painful especially around my crotch/pelvis

I’m exhausted very easily and nap every single day

Can basically only breathe out my mouth now and I’m snoring and dribbling 😂

Standing in one leg is very painful 😂

Some waves of pain/ tightening but I regular and mild

Low period type aches

And I feel like a fire breathing dragon with this acid reflux

My nose is growing 😂

My fingers swell slightly and go numbs in my sleep so that and constant toilet breaks keep me up ( checked swelling with MW and consultant and all normal, not a worry)


I also do not want to be social in person like I’d rather everyone just be my penpal atm lol


What are your symptoms?

Little one will be 6 week tomorrow
