It is your mucous plug. Mine started to come out about a week before I went into labor. When it begins to be blood-tinged or brown, it becomes "show" which generally means your contractions will probably start in the next 24-48 hours. Good Luck and Congratulations in advance!

Does it have a pungent odor? My guess is that it is the mucus plug coming out. If this is your first pregnancy you will probably deliver in the next few days. If this is your 2nd or... pregnancy many will deliver within 24-48hrs of it falling out. The mucous plug is a glob of mucous that plugs the cervix so that when you are pregnant nothing especially bacteria can enter into the uterus via the vaginal route. I will say that the color you described is accurate. If it does have an odor it should smell fleshy not foul. Good luck to you and watch out for the bloody show or breaking of water with contractions that will happen next!!!! All are perfectly normal

Its definitely your mucus plug, that should mean your body is getting ready for delivery. Some people go into labor hours after losing their mucus plug some women go 2 weeks after. Just enjoy your pregnancy and let your doctor know whats going on. Good luck!

My mucous plug was not bloody. It was exactly like you are describing. Losing your mucous plug doesn't mean you will go into labor any time soon. You can lose a mucous plug and develop another one many times before you have your baby. I lost mine, then three weeks later they had to induce me b/c I still hadn't gone into labor. Just report to your doctor that you lost your mucous plug.

It is your mucus plug breaking away. It might tinge with blood so just wear a mini-pad to protect your undies. It sounds like your big day is real close! You might want to call your Dr. because they might want to check you. Good Luck!!

My docs told me this was not abnormal. If this is your mucus plug, it doesn't mean you are going to deliver. I had the same secretions and was *over due*, had to be induced.
Good luck!
