If you don't go into labor, it can grow back in about 48 hours.
Are you sure you're losing your plug? Could you just be having increased vaginal discharge, which is normal in late pregnancy?

I don't think it grows back.
Are you loosing it a lot or just a little? I started loosing mine at that point with my first. It was just a little as a wiped and thought nothing of it. I didn't go into labor until his actual due date.
I'd definately call my OB and tell him what's going on. Especially if it's in clumps and large amounts are coming out. But, I really don't think it is a problem he'll probably just want to check your cervix to make sure you aren't in labor. Like I said...this went on for 15 weeks for me...and my son was born full term and healthy!

Does it come back really? I didn't know that...
I lost mine last week, at only 31 weeks (the whole thing at once in one big glob) but no blood or anything else.
I didn't think it would come back though if it came out too early.
I'll be watching the answers for your question!!

I have never heard of one coming back and it is too early for you to be loosing it - call your dr!
