Sounds like you're losing your mucous plug. "When the cervix begins to open wider, the mucus is discharged into the vagina and may be clear, pink, or slightly bloody. Labor may begin soon after the mucus plug is discharged or one to two weeks later."
(From web md)

I was looking up this info as well, since for the past month ive been yeasty.  I also read that it may pass over time, and not all at once.  Nothing to be worried about, just another sign its almost over! ( I have 15 days left, myself:)
