Lost mucus plug but didn’t go into labor?

Question

Anyone lose their mucus plug but didn’t go into labor?

Answer

Everyone be thinking discharge equals labor....it doesn’t matter how dilated you are, if you lost your mucus plug, that doesn’t mean you will go into labor! Labor happens when a hormone is released in your body that causes labor, without that hormone you will not go into labor!

Answer

Losing your mucus plug unfortunately doesn’t always mean labor is near. Just keep an eye on it!

Answer

I lost mine with a bloody show with my first... and still had to be induced just before 42 weeks. It can mean labor is on the way, but not necessarily.

Answer

Yes I lost most of mine last week and here we are

Answer

I lost mine 8 days before my water broke and I went into labor.

Answer

Unless it’s full of blood(old or new) it’s nothing to indicate labor is near. Clear/which mucous plus can/will grow back. If it mixed with old or new blood than there’s a good chance labor will be starting soon.

Answer

I started losing mine a few days ago and I’m still not in active labor. Having contractions but nothing consistent. Last they checked I was 3cm dilated. With my first it took about a week from losing it to when my water broke. But some women it takes longer
