Plug or...other stuff :) (Warning..TMI!)

Just wondering what others may think of this....

I had a stretch and sweep on Monday (well kind of, my cervix kept running away from my GP, so she wasn't quite able to do it properly), and she used a very small amount of some kind of lubricant/gel stuff when she did it...I think...I can't quite remember.

Anyway, we DTD that night (Monday night) and all the semen (her goes the TMI!) came back out pretty much straight away, and the next morning.... and it was all creamy and stringy.

Anyway, last night I started noticing clearish blobs of Jelly like stuff, and it continued through the night and was like lots of EWCM, but a bit more jelly like. And then this morning I did my own swab to take in for GBS, and I had a big blob come out that was very jelly like again, but a bit creamier...

Do you think this is my plug, or the gel stuff she used? It has been like 48 hours now since she did the s & s.

I am very, very achey down there (period pain and low, low backache) today, and also had the runs during the night, but I am sure this is all just to trick me into thinking something is going to happen :rolleyes:

Sound very "plugy" to me, and I have lost my plug before each of my births.... ;)

The gel she used should of just been a basic lubricant, so pretty much gone after the sex.... ;)

Sorry no advice but fingers crossed :-)

Thanks girls, I have never really lost my plug before with my DD & DS, so not sure what to look for!

Generally big, jelly like globs.. can be streaked with pinkish/redish marks or blood..... or long strings of globs... but it should be very jelly like in consitency... and it shouldn't smell....

Sounds like plug to me too... is it tinged pink at all? You actually sound like early labour to me from your achy and period type pains etc. Hopefully it's all starting up for you. I get so excited hearing stuff like this hehe :)

Thanks Ozzie. Nope, no pink tinges, but I am having some slightly stronger BH every now and then (well I have had 3 noticable ones in the last hour or so)....I so don't want to get my hopes up because I have never gone into spontaneous labour before, and have ended up being induced at 42 wks both times.....but gee it would be nice!!!! :)

Sounds like things might be starting to happen for you, good luck!!

Sounds promising! xx

yep, exactly what happened to me after DTD night before. blood tinged mucusy stringy stuff and mild contractions (by mild i mean just achy period type pain) started following day. yay, how exciting!!! keep us posted :)

How's your day been going?

Still here....less achey, but I still don't quite feel "normal" if that makes sense, no more plug at this stage though.....
