Mucus plug

How long did it take you to lose it completely? I've been losing it the last 12 hours. It's gross. How much is in there?!?

Im 34 weeks and ive been losing mine a few weeks now. I don't know how long it takes. My doctor said it was normal and only worry if its blood tinged or brown.

Every female is different. Some lose it nonstop for weeks. Others lose it in one day. Some never do. Just depends on the pregnancy.

I know it's not an imminent sign of labor (unfortunatley lol), but I'm jw how long it takes to come completely out because it just keeps coming! I'm 39 weeks tomorrow though so I hope it won't regenerate.

I never lost my plug. To my understanding it's not a real big sign of labour. You can lose it for weeks or months before you ever go into labour--it regenerates.

Each time it's not just a little. It's like a glob...
