Mucus Plug
Tonight i just went to the bathroom and i came back out and it felt like a wet myself a little. Went back in and seen some green snot like on my underware. wasn't too much just like a spoonfull.. changed and went and laied down becuase im sick. Im 4 days away from my due date and was like hrmm maybe im starting to loose my mucus plug. So i got back up after taking a nap and went to the bathroom and there was about 2 spoonfuls this time. even more snot like but still greenish clear. So my question is i heard that your mucus plug is like handfuls of mucus would i have lost my mucus plug or are you able to loose a little at a time?
I'm expecting our fifth child and so have lots of experience. Green discharge at this point means that the baby is in some kind of distress because that green color comes from meconium which is the baby's bowel movement. The baby has a bowel movement only if it is in distress. CALL YOUR DOCTOR RIGHT AWAY OR GO TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM!
the plug is usually red , green almost always indicates infrction. I woud give yur dr a call and see what they say. When I lost mine it was always like reallt thick menstration, with clear mc. Good luck may you have a easy birth!!!!! push hard =)
mine was like an off-white color (11 years ago)...
i'd be worried that green was some kind of infection... did you call your ob?

Congratulations on your upcoming due date, how exciting!
My sister told me that I would know when it was the mp, and with my youngest, was she ever right. I lost it all at once in the morning then my water broke about 5 hours later. It was also after using the bathroom. It just kept coming and coming out, no matter how much tissue I used. Very sticky and slimy in different shades of dark, striped colors. (sorry if that was tmi.) I'm not sure what the actual size is, or if everyone's is the same size. If you just had a little, maybe there will be more yet. Best wishes for a happy and healthy delivery and baby! (14w6d)
