I started losing my plug 3weeks ago today, I lost a bit on the friday and a bit on the saturday and some the next day too I think, all would easily have sat on your palm with space to spare. I mentioned this at an appt (I'm seeing midwives but thsis appt was with the drs) she said that it will keep rejuvenating itself. I am sure this was plug back then not normal cm
So now I have been losing sooo much what I have lost in the last 24hrs would fill up about 2specimen jars (please please don't think I'm keeping it somewhere...I'm not lol just imagining if i added it all up thats what it would feel) What do u think??
As far as my cervix goes pretty sure stuff is happening there. didn't know much about feeling ur own but found a thread and find it interesting so thought I'd give it a whirl. I hadn't been able to feel it at all and even got Phil to try feel it (he is tall and has long fingers etc..mine r tiny hands but he has size 12 feet and the long fingers to match) anyway so he wasn't able to feel then I think it was last sat he could feel it (not checking everyday so don't know if that was the first day it was able to be felt but maybe 2-3days before it couldn't be felt) then on the monday I had a feel and I could feel it, then tues had the internal at hosp and was 2cm dialated, central cervix, soft, 2cm long and I felt yesterday and i think it has become shorter. I can feel like the ring kinda thing, the opening and before it was obvious like could easily find it now its just noticable but only just obvious and if i hadn't felt it more obvious wouldnt really notice it now
What do u think? Is this amount of plug normal and do u think given this sudden onslaught that labour will commence pretty soon?? Would especially love ur opinion on this Alan..even though I know its only a guess!
Well lets just say when it comes like it has been there is absolutely NO denying it!!! It's like snot kinda stuff, jellyish big globs, can be yellowish or clear with white bits or blood streaked, pink tinged
Oh ok so is losing your plug just your body getting ready for the baby to come? I don't know much about it Maybe I will learn about it at my Childbirth and parenting classes
Oh yea its like a little plug that protects everythign and when ur cervix starts to soften and opens enough for it to come out it often comes out can happen weeks or moments becofe labour
Plug Question - Alan??
