Lost mucus plug - how long before labor?

Question

I am due in 25ish days. Been feeling nauseated all day, very indigested, throwing up, heart burn 🤢 and started to lose mucus plus today. Not sure how much you lose total but If it was rolled up into a blob, would have been the size of a nickel. It was like a booger strand from a sinus infection. 🤢 still feeling sick and a little shaky 😫🤢

Answer

Anywhere from a few hours till you are 42weeks. To quote my midwife; the mucus plug is pretty irrelevant in terms of when baby comes.

Answer

Unless it was your bloody show. Doesn’t mean much. I went into labor 2-3 days after the bloody show with my son

Answer

With both of my previous pregnancies I started losing my mucus plug around 35/36 weeks. Both babies came at 40 weeks. When I got my bloody show though labour started a few hours later

Answer

I lost mine at 36 weeks exactly with my second child and never went into labor. I had an elective c-section at 40+3 weeks.
