I am 32wk3d and I had an unforeseen appt yesterday due to what appeared to be part of my mucus plug that came out. Dr said I am 1cm dilated but not to be alarmed since this is my second pregnancy and that is was most likely pieces of my mucus plug. They did send off to check for amniotic fluid and said for me to go home and they would call me if it tested positive...then I would need steroid shots to help my baby mature her lungs and then head back to the hospital.  No phone call yet. (No news is good news right?) My only concern is that my son was born at 32wks with no medical reason why other than my membranes stripped for whatever reason and mucus plug had come out 1wk prior(being my first I didn't know what it was at the time, after the fact I know it was my mucus plug). Has anyone else gone through anything like this?
