    another plugger question, help! TMI WARNING

    I just went to the loo and there was a lot of white discharge on my undies. Not like normal discharge... much whiter and fairly gooey when I tried to wipe it with the toot. I assume it was some of my plug coming away. (in the terms of plug loss i don't think the amount would be considered 'lots' but in terms of discharge it was... and certainly not the norm for me...if that makes sense).

    My question: I'm only 30 weeks, does this first indication mean I'm going to go inot labour in the next week or two?

    Is it normal to start losing your plug now??? and can it just come away bit by bit for several weeks ... say 7! lol.

    I don't mind baby coming early, but 30 weeks is just a little toooo early.

    Hey Grub. I've had the same thing happening. Had it with DS as well. Apparently it's quite normal for some of your plug to come away. It will regenerate itself and all should be good

    I agree, it's normal, if it was some of your plug, then it will regenerage, though it could also have been discharge. You can have alot more when pg than what you normally do. Ialways got more during the later stages of pg too. Liners would be a good idea

    Could be a bit of plug or could be leukorrhea. I had heaps at the latter end of both my pgs and pads were a must!
    Pregnancy's a glamorous thing, hey?
