Question about mucus plug?

Question

Does it pass all at once or over a period of time? Ive had really thick discharge some times streaked with blood. It comes almost everytime I go to the bathroom, but has slowed down quite a bit the last two days. Does this mean that I am dilating more? On monday my doctor said I am at 2cm and 75% effaced.

Answer 1

Yes it does! My mucus plug came out that way too. and then slowed down. It does mean things are happening down there.

Good luck to you!!

I bet you wont make it to your due date!  :)  (just my guess)

Answer 2

my understanding is that if there is blood that means the cervix is dilating because the blood is from the blood vessels in the cervix rupturing.
