    Sure is hun, happened to me 11 weeks ago today! Water broke at 6:25am, never saw a mucous plug and was holding DD by 1:58pm.
    Wishing you all the best and hope that you are holding your little treasure super soon

    Sounds like your getting close

    yep some people never see their plug, others get it coming away for weeks before birth. oh and i think it can grow back too if you loose it early.

    I remember getting some very serious Braxton Hicks contractions with DD no 1, never got to see the mucas plug my waters broke first. Same thing with DS, DD saw the plug about 1 week before she decided to show and little DD waters trickled and did'nt see the plug, I guess I seen a little bit before the waters really burst, about 90mins later.
    Good luck it makes life very exciting.
