I lost mine the night before I went into labor. That was with my 3rd child. I have been loosing bits of it all week with this baby so hopefully its not too long for us. Good luck

Everybody is different. In my case, I lost my mucus plug when I was 39w5d (Aug 3 - Monday morning). Early labor started at the night of my due date (Aug 5 - Wed) after a membrane sweep was done by my OB around 4:30pm. I had my baby on Aug 8 (Sat) at 12:45am. :)
