hi mummymel - well you prob know my story but i will post again..
I lost mucous stained with blood (once off occasions) for 2 days and then the 3rd day was what you described with a big blob of what looked like old blood. This was 3 weeks prior to Ashley being born.
On the friday thru to sunday (ie 2 days prior to her birth). I started loosing more plug.. it was different though. A lot redder and bloody. You could tell the difference. It wasnt clear with red it was bloody. THen she was born!
HOpe it is soon!
