well my second i lost my plug and lol i went to the dr and was dialated at 6 didnt even know i was in labor so he told me to go straight to the hospital and 30 mins later delivered a baby girl. so if you are having contractions that are pretty regular id go now. but to me my contractions didnt hurt just felt my stomach got tight then not tight. so i guess thats why i didnt know cause it didnt hurt sence this is not your first it will start alot sooner and usually goes alot faster

There is no way to say.
I lost mine at 32 weeks and didn't go into labor until 38 weeks. It is different for every woman.
As others have said, the average is 2-3 weeks after you have lost the plug.
If there is bloody show in the plug, it could be sooner.

I lost mine 2 weeks before the baby came but labor can come as early as the next day too.

I delivered my baby 9 days after I lost my plug. It just means that you have started to dialate. Most women usually go into labor within 1-2weeks once they lose their mucous plug.

When I lost my plug with my first my contractions came at 5 min intervals immediately.
Good Luck!!

Losing your plug does not mean that labor is soon to follow. You can lose your plug months before your even due. its only purpose is to prevent dirt,infections, etc to enter the cervix. Your still a bit too early to have your baby but just relax and she/ he will be here before you know it.

No way to tell from that. It could be 3 hours or 3 weeks. Just enjoy this last bit of pregnancy. :)
