I started losing my plug in the beginning of May, but I haven't lost any since I'm 37+5 and I'm scared it's probably growing back. Ugh ...

I lost my plug at 38 weeks and I'm now 40+2 and still no baby! It's a sign labor is coming but it can still be hours, days, or weeks. It basically just means your dilating! But dilation also isn't the best indicator cause I've been 4 cms for two weeks lol!

Your mucus plug is a thick discharge sometimes its pink other times its just got a speck of blood in it. It is a sign of labor coming. Usually when you lose your plug labor will be there within the week.
