How long after losing mucous plug did you go into labor?

[durhamjk1]

I am in the process of losing my mucous plug at 39 weeks 2 days - how long after you lost your mucous plug did you go into labor?  Thanks!

i lost my mucus plus from week 23 till week 33 (it was breaking off and i was loosing it in pieces) a week after the last piece i went into "active labor" and had the boys.

I lost my mucus plug over the course of a month or so but once the last chunk of it (yuck) came out it was about a week and a half or so that I went into labor.

Maybe he is waiting till the last minute to drop completely.  Some babies do that.  My daughter, first one that is, I had started to drop and then the day my water broke she completely dropped and her head went through, lol....  Like she had dropped to about where my pants were sitting, and then completely down so my husband was like, "What happened to your stomach?"  while i'm sitting there in labor lol...

Well, i'm keeping and eye on you and rosa!!!  lol  maybe your babies will be born on the same day and time!  LOL

Ashiepooh - He has dropped - but just a little bit - not a great significance =

Rosa20 - I feel like I am racing with you ! I want us both to cross that finish line soon so that we can hold our little bundles of joy in our arms instead of being kicked by them in our wombs!  LOL!

[Rosa20]

i know how you feel hun! Im praying for you as well as for myself!! :)

[ashiepooh]

lol...  I am sorry Durhamjk1!!!

Has he dropped yet?  Atleast you only have a few days to go!  =)  

[durhamjk1]

I am so anxious - I don't think I can wait much longer - besides the fact that I am getting extremely uncomfortable - it is hard to breathe sometimes and I can't eat much - there is just not enough room in there!  He needs to come out - but he is being stubborn like his daddy!

I went under 24 hours with both my kids from losing my plug.  But I was also early with both of them.

I voted a week or more because it was like a month before I went into labor. You're close enough to the magical 40-week mark so it might be the next few days, hopefully!!!
