Mucus plug?

Question

I know people ask about this all the time and I’m not one of those to post a picture bc gross. But how do I know the difference between discharge and my mucus plug? Also if it is, should I be concerned? I’m 30 weeks.

Answer

Usually the plus will have some blood tinged in it. Kind of like streaks of blood for me anyway.

Answer

It’s just mucus that comes out and it regenerates. Not a cause for concern.

Answer

Mine has been coming out for a few weeks now in small pieces. It’s just mucus as opposed to regular discharge. The “bloody show” is when it comes out in a clump and has blood in it. Your mucus plug can come out all at once or in parts over time. It can come out in the beginning or not at all until the end. My first one didn’t come out. My second one has been coming out in little pieces for weeks. It regenerates by itself though until the baby is ready to come out.
