So, I went to the doctor yesterday for my weekly exam. She said that my cervix was 70% thinned out and opened about a fingertip's length. she then said she played with the the cervix a little to see if it would speed thing up. I'm assuming this was a "sweep" that you girls refer to.

Anyway, this morning when I went to use the bathroom, I found a big yellow "glob" of mucus in my underwear. I was excited, but scared when I saw it. i stared at it for like 5 minutes, before cleaning myself up!!:haha:

I called the nurse and she said that it was normal and that it was nothing to worry about at this point, since I am not yet having any contractions. I want to ask you ladies, what is your experience with the time it takes for your water to break after your mucus plug comes out??

Thanks in advance!!!
 
I think losing your plug doesnt really indicate how long it will be before you go into labor unfortuntely :( you can normally go a little while even after you lose it. keeping my fingers crossed its not too long for you :)
