I lost it - eventually! With DS1 it must have happened when the ruptured my membranes. With DS2 I heard the mw say "there's your show" - it happened at the same time as the contraction which made me want to start pushing when I was fully dilated!
I lost mine in bits throughout the day that I went into labour (while in prelabour).
Mine wasn't a "plug" it was very similar to fertile CM but just more of it than what you would normally get during a cycle. It kept coming out all day and mostly was blood tinged. I was expecting this big blob and it just wasn't like that.
With DD1 I lost mine the day before. It was grey with a streak of blood in it. It came out in 2 goes. The last of it went in the toilet about 3 hours before my waters broke.
DD2 - Thick white mucus for 3 or 4 days before labour sarted. Thats all I saw or heard about.
DS - Nothing! I must've spent hours all up checking & waiting for something, but nothing.
I had a bloody show maybe an hour before I had him. Didn't see it though. MW told me.
i had MAJOR discharge for about a week prior to labour- but no blood- just lots of creamy stuff (hee hee i have been waiting to use the TMI icon!!) I went into labour at 37 and half weeks- and while i was at the hospital just after i was examined and was 3cm dialated i went to the loo afterwards and had blood when i wiped which the mw called my "show"
I also had major BH for about 2 weeks before labour and full on period pain like pain in the mornings but never the two together- i knew i was in labour coz i started getting the BH tightening and the period pains both at the same time!
