Mucus plug?

I'm 33/34 weeks (dr. says 33 according to last menstrual & ultrasound tech says 34). I just went to the bathroom & when I wiped there was a light yellow snotty looking stuff on toilet paper.  Could this have been part of mucus plug or does discharge sometimes look like  this? I have no discomfort, itching, or burning, like I might have infection.

It is probably your mucus plug. You could lose pieces up until you go into labor. I lost pieces here and there until the night I went in labor. That night there was a big ball of it and thats when I knew I had lost it all. congrats your getting close.

You can loose your mucus plug numerous times during pregnancy. I lost mine from week 24 up until I deliveres. It actually regenerates itself. If it is mixed with blood though that usually indicates that labor will be happening soon.
