mucus plug statistic

Was seen by doc yesterday and bled after internal exam. Enough to where i had to be seen in hospital. Today...all day... I have been loosing what I believe is my mucus plug. With mild back pain. Trying to stay active! As they sent me home from hospital with being 3cm 70% effaced. How long after loosing plug did you go into labor? I have high hopes to be home for Xmas with my baby boy 💙🎄💙
