I think i lost my mucus plug. (27wks)

I know with pregnancy comes discharge, but I went to the bathroom there was an aweful lot when I wiped that was yellow in color. Usually it's white. This is my 2nd pregnancy but the 1st thats made it full term. every womans plug is different I'm sure. But am I correct in that maybe I lost mine!?
Hope I can get some answers!

Thanks!
One anxious and scared mommy to be.

Ugh! I made a big typo. I'm not 27 weeks I'm 37! This isn't the 1st time I've said I'm 27! I swear no braid needs an upgrade!

I lost mine at 27wks. It was a big glob of clear/yellowish jelly with a swirl of blood in it and I started having contractions 20mins later. My dr didn't care about the mucus plug at all because he said it replenishes itself but the contractions were a concern and had to be stopped, so if you get contractions go in asap. Otherwise, like the above said it sounds like a yeast infection so let your dr know at your next appointment. Good luck!

It may be a sign of yeast infection also!  This is my second pregnancy and the first one I didn't discharge at all,  but this one I have a lot and I fought with mucus looking discharge and turns out that is what I had. I'd ask your doctor just to be safe but I hope that helps calm your nerves a bit.

Not sure how I posted this in the 18-24 week community(lol).  But thank you for the responses! I have an appointment thursday but I didn't want to be one of those patients where I think everything is wrong or has happened. Over paranoid I guess. I will for sure let the dr know. Thanks again!

It sounds like part of your mucus plug. With my first, I started losing parts of it for a few days before my water actually broke. My son was 40+2

That sounds like the mucus plug to me. But I'm a FTM so I'm just going by what I've seen. I'd tell your doctor as soon as possible but don't be scared. I know My friend lost her mucus plug at 26 weeks and still carried the baby to term. But tell your doctor cause they may put you on bed rest.
