its called mucus plug or something. it 's very normal and it just means that you're on your way to labor (which you almost are .. i read your post, god bless your husband!) . it doesnt guaranty a time though. i dont remember it too well cause the last lamaze class i took was 6 years ago .... but trust your gut anyway. if you feel weird about it call your doctor. good luck and god bless! ↑ |
Although it sounds as if your just passing your mucus plug (this can happen up to a few weeks before labor) you may be going into or are in preterm labor. Preterm labor is labor that occurs before the 37th week. Symptoms of preterm labor are
-vaginal discharge (watery, mucus or bloody)
-Pelvic or Lower abdominal pressure
-Low, dull backache
-stomach cramps, with or without diarrhea
-Regular contractions or uterine tightening ↑ |
Ashley, sounds like this is it!!!!!! I know you've been waiting for this for a long time. I'm so excited. Try not to worry and relax tonight, might be the last for a bit. I know it's hard not to worry, but you've come so far and Emma is ready to make her grand entrance, makes me well up with tears. You''ve been such a wonderful person here, so supportive and encouraging, and you have given me hope.
God bless sweetie. ↑ |
