It differs from person to person. I lost my plug at 35 weeks and had my son at 36 weeks...I know people who lost their plug several weeks before giving birth...and sometimes you can even develop a new plug...but you are getting close...good luck and congratulations!

Honestly, it's nothing to panic over and there is no need to waste your time rushing to the hospital... if your contractions aren;t the typical 4-1-1 and your water hasn;t broken the hospital won;t admit you as yet.
Some people lose their plug a month before labor starts... some a few hours..
The plug is loosened and dislodged when your cervix beging to rippen and dialate... it's a good sign things are progressing.. relax, tie up loose ends and be happy

There is no exact time frame for everyone. I know you've probably heard this many times, but it could be any day now. Depending on how quickly labor progresses. Losing your mucus plug does not ensure that you will go into labor. There is still a chance it will have to be induced, although losing your mucus plus will lead to your water breaking, then labor will follow. If your water breaks, if you do not go into labor within a certain period of time, your doctor will induce you to reduce risk of complications and infection. Good luck

A teacher at my daughter's school is expecting her second. With her first, when she lost her plug she had the baby 4 days later. It's now been a month since she lost it this time and she's still waiting. But something tells me you'll be having that baby soon. GOOD LUCK!!

I lost my mucus plug and delivered a beautiful babay boy 16 hours later, However everyone is different. It take a few hours or a few days. Notify your doctor he will probably want you to come to the office to check you out. Then it is just a waitng game

seriously get ready...Once I lost my mucous plug, then my water broke and I had a baby approximately 12 minutes later...this was my second baby but it could be any time now. My daughter was very different and they had to break my water but it went generally the same way, when the water is gone the baby is on it's way.
