TMI TMI TMI ~ Plug question

[bethy1512]

Ummm... ok...I'm so sorry for asking anothr TMI question but all his pregnancy stuff baffles me

Have been taking 2 x EPO a dy for last 3 days.... and last night when i went to the loo i wiped and there was a big lump of clear jelly like stuff... by big i mean like ummm.... maybe a tablespoon size.... sorry TMI.

Wat is it? is i the plug? if it is what does that mean? I walked for ages yesterday xmas shopping and really struggled .... kinda felt like walking with a bowling ball between my legs.

Help please! Freaking out as usual.

it could be part of it, normally the whole plug will have a tiny bit of blood staining in it, keep an eye on it though i hope you got your bag packed hun and are ready

Sounds like a bit of plug to me too!

I've had this for two weeks and loads every morning mine is pink stained though

hospital have assured me head isn't engaged though so I'm not in labour even though having tightenings too x

aww cool.... it seems every1 on here is up north somewhere...i felt so alone! lol.

At my last midwife appointment 10 days ao they said LO was 4/5 engaed. ceph. whatever that meant

i have been having the occasional stabbing pain "down there"... and frequent tightenings in my bump, but they are not painful.

Ive also have had the occasional "period pain" but there is no pattern to them and they have been over the last week.

...two things i hve noticed is that i have been MEGA HUNGRY lately... which is the first time this has hit me all pregnancy.... and also visiting the bathroom for "number 2'" like 4 times a day........ is that normal?

Sorry for TMI and for being such a numpty
