Well, theres that.

Mucous plug talk. Kinda gross, fair warning, but I'm kinda an open book lol.

I'm 39w1d today, Thanksgiving day, due next Wednesday Dec 1st. First pregnancy, FTM.

2 days ago I saw my OB and was dilated to 3.75cm and 75-80% effaced. Everything has been going smoothly this entire pregnancy. I've been still having braxton hicks, only yesterday they became more frequent but not painful just uncomfortable still. I expected the process to take it's sweet time 🤷‍♀️

This morning, maybe about at 2:45am, I got up to pee and then blow my nose since I've been congested tonight. When I blew my nose, it felt like I possibly peed myself in that exact moment. Not to get all technical and gross, but it literally felt like I like pushed a little bit of fluid out of my vagina when I blew my nose. You know, almost like when you accidentally pee yourself after sneezing or blowing your nose.. 🙃

So naturally my brain went 😳 Did my water just break...

So I stood there waiting for it to run down my leg... Didnt feel anything, so I waited.

After a minute or so, I decided to check out what might have happened. Well, sure enough, lost my mucous plug. No blood, but it was gross lol. Like my vagina just sneezed out a big boogie 😅

2 days ago my OB said I probably wouldnt see a mucous plug and I had probably lost it in little pieces over the last few weeks, so it was kind of a surprise to see it lol. Now just waiting to see what happens now. I'm not sure if this means my water might break soon, how soon or when, or what might happen now but I'm hoping I get to enjoy some tasty Thanksgiving food before our daughter decides to make her arrival 😅 🦃

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!
