Unless you have timeable contractions or real bleeding I wouldn't worry. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-lose-your-mucus-plug-1#post-480154 Fri, 04 Jan 2013 08:27:42 +0000 mediagirl 480154@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had been having contractions for about 2 hours when it fell out.

Said it was fine and we may loose them a few weeks before going into labor. I have been cramping so much recently I keep checking myself for mine. LOL </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-lose-your-mucus-plug-1#post-479968 Thu, 03 Jan 2013 23:41:41 +0000 MaisyMay 479968@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When my folley catheter fell out, dilated at 4 cms. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-lose-your-mucus-plug-1#post-479963 Thu, 03 Jan 2013 23:35:20 +0000 loveisstrange 479963@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ladyfingers: Cramps in late-term pregnancy are very common. A friend lost her plug at 38 weeks and had no issues. I wouldn't worry too much unless the cramps are timeable or you start bleeding. I'd call to ease your mind though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-lose-your-mucus-plug-1#post-479961 Thu, 03 Jan 2013 23:33:44 +0000 loveisstrange 479961@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I lost mine at 40+4 and my water broke about 12 hours later. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-lose-your-mucus-plug-1#post-479947 Thu, 03 Jan 2013 23:28:53 +0000 glimmersnaps 479947@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>During active labor here too! (And my water never broke until the midwife ruptured it.)</p> <p>I'd imagine it's just because you had an exam. You could call in the morning just to put your mind at ease, it's usually worth it :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-lose-your-mucus-plug-1#post-479931 Thu, 03 Jan 2013 23:17:48 +0000 wheres_c 479931@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>2 hours before my water broke! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-lose-your-mucus-plug-1#post-479884 Thu, 03 Jan 2013 22:54:32 +0000 mrskc 479884@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>During active labor </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-lose-your-mucus-plug-1#post-479883 Thu, 03 Jan 2013 22:51:43 +0000 ksnow 479883@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I lost mine right after my water broke at 41 weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-lose-your-mucus-plug-1#post-479880 Thu, 03 Jan 2013 22:49:37 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 479880@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lemondrop: LOL! Tables turned because I was so jealous that you had Cam over a week before I had Willa ;-) You were the 4th person I knew that went into labor early, and I was 5 days late. So funny how that happens. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-lose-your-mucus-plug-1#post-479877 Thu, 03 Jan 2013 22:48:43 +0000 ladyfingers 479877@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@NYCaliMama: I wonder too if it's just a piece. There's no blood and I had my first cervical exam yesterday so I bet he just jarred something loose ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-lose-your-mucus-plug-1#post-479871 Thu, 03 Jan 2013 22:47:39 +0000 ladyfingers 479871@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's not anything I have to call my doctor about right? I had some mild cramps (3 or 4 maybe) this afternoon and now DH is doing research that says it can be a sign of placental abruption and I want to murder him.</p> <p>But in general, I can just tell my doc at my appointment next week? It doesn't sound like it's a sign of anything or that they'd really do anything... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-lose-your-mucus-plug-1#post-479864 Thu, 03 Jan 2013 22:45:54 +0000 lemondrop 479864@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>About 2 hours before my water broke at 39 weeks.</p> <p>@BabyBoecksMom: haha, I remember that, I was so jealous! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-lose-your-mucus-plug-1#post-479863 Thu, 03 Jan 2013 22:45:53 +0000 SAHM0811 479863@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Never lost it with #1 (til active labor)... started to slowly lose it at 36 weeks the second time around. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-lose-your-mucus-plug-1#post-479860 Thu, 03 Jan 2013 22:42:55 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 479860@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I lost it 5 weeks before I went into labor. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-lose-your-mucus-plug-1#post-479847 Thu, 03 Jan 2013 22:36:00 +0000 prettylizy 479847@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>after my water broke at 37w2d. </p> <p>I have heard other mama's say that their plug went long before labour actually started though. </p>
