Hi ladies, I just went to the washroom and there was this large chunk, maybe the size of a golf ball of white discharge. It was very thing and stretchy!?!?! Im 37 weeks, 70% effaced and 1cm dilated..

Any idea what this could be???? I was thinking mucus plug, but would it not have blood in it??? There was no blood, just white???


Help
 
Is it white as in clearish, translucentish or white as in cottage cheese? Sorry if TMI. My midwife told me that mucus plus doesn't necessarily need to have blood in it. It sounds like your plug.
 
I don't have any of the thrush symptoms. I don't think that is it. !?!?!?

It was white almost like snow ( maybe dirty snow) hehehe. A few spots that were more clearish if i tried to spred it And Linda like jello. It was not runny. Msorry. Tmi!!
 
Don't follow the link if you are squeamish... but it really does sound like your plug and if you are dialating then it makes sense that you might be starting to lose it.

Yes, that's exactly what it looked like!!!!!! Hope I don't go into labour soon, baby is still breech... Ecv scheduled for tomorrow morning to try to flip her!!!!
 
Mucus plug can start to come away long before labour begins as it can occur with the changes that happen to cervix leading up to labour so not necessarily associated with onset of labour immediately or anything at all.

Here's hoping that this just means that after a successful and smooth and easy ECV tomorrow that baby will be well ready to go and cervix ready and waiting too!!!!

Fingers crossed it all goes super super smooth!
