I started having globs of mucus in my discharge at 20weeks, about once a week, and they were pretty large, very thick, and looked like eggwhite, only thicker. Almost solid. I questioned if it was the mucus plug, but was told that it was nothing to worry about. Since there was no blood, I left it at that. At 24 weeks I was now having it daily, and then I had a glob of mucus that was red-stained. The rest of my discharge was still white/clear. A few hours later I had some bleeding which quickly resolved itself. After ultrasounds there were no problems found. Two weeks later I had a similar glob of mucus, but it was read and dark brown. As far as I know, they both fit descriptors of the mucus plug. But at a recent exam (27 weeks) she said that she found some but it appeared to be ordinary mucus (though it was brown) and not the mucus plug. I really thought that having blood in it and looking like snot was a good way to tell, but now I'm not so sure.
