I think I'm losing my mucus plug?

[Riot_Queen]

I accidentally posted this in the wrong forum, I wanted it on here because there's more people that have the knowledge that I need. lol



I went to the bathroom like, 4 er 5 hours ago, and I had this clump of green/whiteish/yellowish bugger lookin **** on my underwear.
Sorry if tmi, but it was absolutely disturbing when I saw it.

It wasn't ALOT, it was just a little clump of it, but it was enough to gross me the hell out. lol

I dunno, I was told that you can lose your mucus plug little by little, or in one big wod.

And ever since 4 er 5 hours ago, I've been getting little bit and pieces of that green slime **** here n there every so often when I go to the bathroom.

I dunno what else to try n say it is, because I know it's not from a UTI because when I get those, if I get that mucus slime stuff it's usually just tainted yellow, and my regular CM is justs clear/white.

This is the first time it's been tainted green.

Anyone else have an explaination for me?

If it is my MP, should I be worried?
I'm only 28w1d, I'm no where NEAR ready to give birth.
I understand that you can lose it WAY before you give birth, but at 28 weeks?

What are some things I should avoid if it is, I already know I can't go swimming, or take baths because the water can get up in there.
I'm really worried. I don't see my doc till the 24th, but I don't wanna have an emergency appointment if I don't need to.

Thanks ladies.
I'll try to get ahold of him this afternoon.
I haven't had any more of that stuff come out of me, it stopped last night I guess cuz I haven't seen anymore of it.
I'm still gunna let my doctor know though.

if it is your plug it will grow back if its not time. call your doctor

I don't think it's a bad idea to at least call your doc and tell them what happened because you are still pretty far away from giving birth so I don't think you should be losing your plug yet.  I do know that I got some light green CM while pregnant and it turned out I had a vaginal infection.  I wasn't even uncomfortable yet.  But it sounds like you had more that I did so I don't know if that is what you have or not.  That's why I'd call your doc.

I'm not sure about the precautions of losing it this early, but my dr told me that it can in lack for a better term "grow" back. If it has any tint of red or pink i would defenitly go to Labor and delevery. I never saw my Mucus plug and i've heard it can look like snot and such so i'm not sure. sorry i couldn't be of much if any help =] also if you lose your plug it can be weeks or days but i'm not sure about months =]
