Mucus plug

Is mucus plug always blood stained or is it only blood stained before you give birth? Every evening for about a week I feel like blob fall out of me it’s sticky and gloopy but no blood and just happens once in the evening. Is this my plug or just some weird discharge?

No always with blood. It could be mucus plug that comes off in smaller pieces

Mine had no blood just before labour
Just really chunky and there was A LOT of it.

this is what I’ve been thinking as I thought if it was just normal discharge it would happen all throughout the day. I had to be induced with my first so nothing happened until I was actually in labour. So all new to me

ah okay, yeah this is chunky like I can feel it come out of me

I lost mine in pieces over a few days which was just clear jelly like and then when contractions started I lost a bigger bit with a small amount of blood in it but nothing much

Day out after c section

Hey,
I had an emergency c section 1 week ago I obviously don't want a day out right now but I have things booked for the Easter holidays so in 2 weeks. I was just wondering if I will be overdoing it if I have a day out then or will I be ok? I would still take it as easy as I could. When did everyone feel good enough to go out?

Period like cramps

Hi
I’m currently 33 weeks pregnant and I keep getting period like cramps I thought these were Brixton hicks but I’ve heard they only last 30 seconds ish as this can go on for a good time frame then go away and come back, they aren’t bad enough where I can’t do basic things they just feel like I’m about to get my period I’m jus wondering how normal this is? Baby is still very actively kicking xx

C section or natural?

I am a control freak and thinking c section is the least stressful route for me and baby… less complications during labour etc. whilst acknowledging recovering can be hard.
If it could be guaranteed no tearing or complications then I would opt for natural and kind of want to experience the feeling.
Then again could plan and go either way 😂 arghh!
Anyone else in this predicament?

Midwife check

Can someone remind me when the midwife visits you at home? Is it the day after you’re discharged? And is that the same on the weekend or do they not visit then? Thanks!

Owlet

Anyone else’s owlet pi##ing them off ?!?! It goes off 5/6 a night saying it can’t get a reading and needs a snug fit. My baby is 8 months old so moves a lot. It is driving me insane and I keep end up taking it off!!
