Is this normal??????

Okay so last night every time I got up to go to the toilet when I would wipe there would be a couple of spots of blood, now I am not sure if this is part of my show because last time I didn't get my show till after the doc did a S&S, and then it all pretty much came out at once and it was all blobby and gross lol Sorry if it's TMI!!
So what I am wondering is if it is harmless and just the start of my show or something to be worried about. TIA

it could very well be part of your show. this is how my labour started. can you contact your caregiver to give them a heads up?

OK now I am just frustrated every time I think that something could be happening, it stops!!!!!! I had one lot of spotting this morning and now nothing all day just a hell of alot of CM, grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr I am so sick of all the stopping and starting, let's do this already.

I feel your frustration Brianna but it does sound like your plug coming away. This is a good sign that things are progressing but unfortunately the real thing may still be days away yet - from what I've learned from others experience.

It does your head in looking for signs and symptoms constantly hey - Im in the same boat and it sux !

I know, everyday you are constantly thinking could this be it and then you are just waiting and waiting..................and waiting some more lol I think it's worse second time round.

Im 38 weeks today and ive had the same thing for the last week. This is my second and i dont remember ever loosing my plug with my first only that i had my show right before she was born. I asked my midwife about it and she said it definatly sounds like things are getting relaxed.
